Bordeaux / France

Red

The 1982 was never terribly well-endowed, and it now appears to have completely fallen off the cliff. Weedy and vegetal with meager fruit as well as depth, it is all acidity and tannin with shallow flavors. It is a mere caricature of a great Bordeaux.

Harvesting at Chateau Rauzan Segla 2013

2013 has been a challenging vintage for most of France. Much of Bordeaux has been affected by storms earlier in the year, resulting in considerably lower yields for many. Luckily, at Rauzan Segla not too much of the crop was lost. This has helped the chateau overcome what was looking to be another major concern for the vintage: rot. The ...

Interview with Nicolas Audebert – Chief Winemaker at Chateau Rauzan Segla, Chateau Canon and Chateau Berliquet

The Rauzan Segla 2018 has been met with rave reviews. At what point did you feel you had made a special wine? It is a long process in a technician's mind as the picture of the vintage is getting clearer and clearer from the picking to the “dégustations d’assemblage” (blending tastings). Each vintage gives me a particular emotion, the ...
