Château Rauzan Ségla Margaux 1855 2ième Cru 2000
Tawny rose in colour, with dried roses, mushroom and soy on the aromatics, this is definitely open and heading to fully tertiary, focusing squarely on charcoal, spice and undergrowth rather than plump fruits at this stage, with a touch of earthy brett. You can find more muscular 2000s, but this is succulent, welcoming and very much ready to drink, with layers of smoky oak. 60% new oak barrels, 37hl/h yield. Harvest September 25 to October 6. John Kolasa director.
