A wine that could easily be mistaken for a First Growth — powerful and full-bodied yet holding onto a remarkable sense of elegance and perfect balance, with blackcurrants, smoked earth, tobacco, lead pencil, and spice giving way to a concentrated, blockbuster Margaux with masses of ripe tannins and great length on the finish. Now entering its drink window with decades still ahead.
"Deep garnet in color, the 2010 Rauzan-Segla is youthfully reticent and closed to begin, slowly unfurling to offer notions of underbrush, black truffles, smoked meats and tar over a core of baked black cherries, prunes and creme de cassis plus touches of iron ore and crushed rocks. Full-bodied, concentrated and jam-packed with savory/earthy fruit, it has a rock-solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing with great length and expression. The blend this year is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, harvested between September 23rd and October 19th, at an average yield of 37 hectoliters per hectare. It was aged for 18 months in French oak, 60% new. The alcohol is 14%, and the pH is 3.52."
