This Margaux 2011 offers a deep ruby-red colour & a bouquet delicately combining liquorice with roasted coffee notes & surprising hints of cassis bud. The tannins are fleshy & very full thanks to the slow extraction during the vatting process. The long, silky finish combines flavours of cassis (stemming from the dominant cabernet sauvignon) with slightly woody notes, revealing all the elegance of this wine. At Chateau Pouget particular attention is paid to the harvesting date, with the aim of picking grapes that have reached optimum ripeness. The grapes are sorted both in the vineyard & at the winery, & express all the finesse of this great terroir. ...

This attractive wine is surprisingly elegant, lush & fruit forward, as one might expect from this unheralded appellation. Merlot & Malbec work together giving a rich, mouthfilling structure & ripe soft plummy fruit, while Cabernet Franc cuts through with its crunchy fruit & tighter tannins. This wine hit 14.5% natural alcohol in 2010, which I think is an all-time high. ...

Boasting a lovely ruby-red colour with violet tints, this wine releases scents of red berries, cassis & blueberry, along with a hint of fresh vanilla. On the palate, the attack is fleshy & intense, with velvety tannins. Flavours of ripe cherry emerge, mingling with notes of mild spices & paprika. Lightly woody notes come out, although respecting the fruit character of the wine. The finish is long & flavoursome. ...

A long period of ageing in oak barrels was needed to round off this very powerful wine. Citrus & fresh fruit aromas combine with candied apricot & green almonds on the nose. Great length on the palate matched with lively, fresh fruit, & a strong impression of honey & acacia blossom. ...

Chateau Rauzan-Segla - 2e Cru Classe Margaux 2008 12x 75cl Bottles

The palate shows a fresh, vibrant fruit character with black and red fruit spreading across the mid-palate. Beautifully textured with fresh acidity and fine-grained tannin giving length to this appealing Rauzan. It is a beautiful wine in this vintage, not nearly as powerful and structured as the 2010, but it has complex notes of sweet red and black fruits, unsmoked cigar tobacco, spice box and a hint of very subtle wood. The complex perfume is followed by a dark ruby/plum-coloured wine with beautifully sweet tannins, a silky, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and a long finish.
