2000 Segla
Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2015 11:24 pm
With wholesome beef stew on a beautiful Fall day with colours just starting and golf course in peak shape ready for its winter sleep in a few weeks we enjoyed this 2000 Segla. With some discussions recently about 2000s ready to go I thought I'd pull this second wine from this Chanel property(Remember Nic!!). No question this second wine is in a very nice spot right now and it only makes me wonder how good the first must be! Starting to brick on the edges and showing some age but the nose is all Margaux and open for business. Delicious with a little residual tannins to match up beautifully with the stew. Fruit starting to plateau with earthy notes developing. Very nice right now and one of the better seconds but I wouldn't sit on this one beyond a 5 yr window. 92pts.
