Château Rauzan-Ségla, Margaux, Grand Cru Classé 2014 Bordeaux Red Wine, $59.49-$69.99, 92 points, poured broadly black with grading terminal purple/red and clear wine rings at the moderately draped glass bowl.
Aromatic sandalwood, roses, boysenberry jam, and a cedar potpourri were lovely.
Medium-plus body carried bright acidity with fine-grain drying tannins.
Flavors of truffle, black fruit, and plum notes were furtively delicious, but had a difficult time breaking through this still too young of a red wine's tannins, but just wait ten years!
Finished with some exciting warm spices and a well-balanced 13.5% alcohol.
Varietals were 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot, and 1% Cabernet Franc.
