Yves Beck 97-99 points www.yvesbeck.wine La clarté et la définition de ce bouquet posent les jalons, d’entrée. Que de précision, de fraîcheur et de pluralité. Des parfums de baies rouges et noires, des nuances de réglisse et de rafraîchissantes notes d’eucalyptus forment le bouquet. Le vin brille de sa pertinence, de son côté ciselé, juteux, fruité et élégant… tout en disposant d’une extraordinaire puissance, savamment canalisée. Un vin exceptionnel, harmonieux, fin, d’une rare persistance. 2028-2052
Georgina Hindle 97 points www.decanter.com Gorgeously fragranced on the nose with perfumed black fruits and pink flowers – smells very Margaux. Clean and crisp, a beautiful precision from the start with ripe and rich fruit but cool fresh acidity and sleek, fine tannins. A little shy, still compact and tightly knitted, but lovely detail, so well worked, almost delicate but there’s still quite fleshy, plush fruit. Excellent concentration but delivered with an easy sleight of hand, expanding with time in the glass. Glamorous, scented, inviting, deep and seductive. A brilliant and totally moreish wine. Yield of 30hl/ha. 3.7pH. 17% press wine. Harvest 2-28 September. Ageing in French oak for 14-16 months, 15% new. In organic conversion. Tasted twice.
Jean-Marc Quarin 97 www.quarin.com Couleur noire. Grand nez profond, de fruits noirs, de fruits frais, légèrement mentholé. Ample à l’attaque, moelleux en milieu de bouche, très aromatique, le vin se développe plus parfumé que de coutume. Il s’achève long, pulpeux, raffiné, sur une tannicité minutieuse. Il est à la fois le plus complet des Rauzan Segla que je connais, mais aussi le plus margalien sur le plan aromatique. Assemblage : 72 % cabernet sauvignon (moyenne +), 26 % merlot, 2 % petit verdot. Degré d’alcool : 14°5 – pH : 3,7. Rendement : 30 hl/ha. Propriété en conversion bio. Certification en 2024.
Neal Martin 95-97 points www.vinous.com The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla was picked 2 to 28 September at 30hL/ha and matured for 18 months in 50% new oak. Nicolas Audebert told me that it contains 17% vin de presse which is slightly higher than normal, a combination of 150 separate vinifications. This has a very opulent bouquet with layers of black cherries, créme de cassis and violets. Perhaps just a little too decadent? The palate is medium-bodied with fine balance, grainy tannins, very pure and focused with quite a minerally finish. Long in the mouth. It’s just missing that knockout blow at the moment, yet it’s still a supremely well-crafted Margaux.
William Kelley 96-97 points www.erobertparker.com The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla is a beautifully sensual, charming wine, bursting with aromas of cherries, dark berries and plums mingled with hints of violets, sweet loamy soil and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it’s fleshy and enveloping, with an ample core of vibrant fruit, supple tannins and a long, succulent finish. The 2022 is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot; and in 2022, the east-facing sides of the vines, which see the afternoon sun, were picked separately, along with anything that showed signs of stress.
Antonio Galloni 95-97 points www.vinous.com The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla is a rich, opulent wine that very much reflects the nature of this radiant, dry year. Super-ripe dark plum, cassis, chocolate, gravel, cloves and new leather build as the 2022 shows off its unabashedly opulent personality. Even with all of its intensity, the 2022 retains tons of persistence and energy. It’s a fabulous wine in this tricky vintage. Tasted three times.
