Rauzan Segla - Margaux 1900 (Capsule Damaged)

Rauzan Segla - Margaux 1900 (Capsule Damaged)

Like the Poisets this is notably rich with its relatively large-scaled flavors that also enjoy good density thanks to the abundant dry extract that also coats the palate and pushes the firmer supporting tannins to the background

It is rich and pure

that made me realize how spectacular this vintage must have been in Pomerol

The potentially perfect 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon is a totally dry wine

There is superb richness to the voluminous

There is equally good depth to the delicious

The finish narrows just a bit and it is this aspect that ultimately prevents this otherwise gorgeous effort from meriting a higher overall score

powerful and robust big-bodied flavors that display plenty of minerality and drive on the exceptionally persistent finish

Another perfect wine from Ann Colgin and her winemaking team is the 2013 IX Proprietary Red Estate

Near black in color with saturated ruby and vermillion nuances

This is even more floral-inflected with an abundance of spice elements adding breadth to the airy and cool aromas of primarily red berries

Its creamy freshness is further emphasised by the textural delicacy of its mousse
