2008 Chateau Rauzan Segla Margaux (750ml)
91 Points
"The 2008 Rauzan-Segla, a blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot, is just beginning to show signs of maturity in the glass. The bouquet has always been a little conservative and foursquare in my opinion, as if the Merlot needs to gee up and impart more opulence and fruit. There is a light earthy scent, and a touch of warm brick infusing the dark berry fruit, but it does not quite billow as you would like a Margaux wine to do. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, a fine line of acidity, truffle tinged red berry fruit laced with mocha and leather. This is showing more secondary notes towards the finish, but I would still afford it maybe another year or two in bottle. (Tasted at the chateau and at BI Wine & Spirit's annual vertical tasting.)"
