Product Description

Overview

Winery: Segries (Chateau)

Château de Segries, Tavel Rosé  2012 is made from 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 15% Clairette, 5% Syrah. The age of the vines is 30 years. Traditional vinification at low temperature, "vin de saignée" with a maceration during one night in cement vat.

As always, their Tavel Rose is a winner. The 2012, a blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 15% Clairette and 5% Syrah, is a delightful, fragrant, medium-bodied, dry rose displaying lots of garrigue, pepper and white currant notes intermixed with kirsch and raspberry fruit. Drink this complex rose over the next several years.-Robert Parker 90 Points

Score History:

Segries Tavel Rose 2011

"Dark ruby rose. A benchmark Tavel with pure ripe cherry and strawberry fruit aromas and flavors. Rich and fruit forward and full on the palate with good density of ripe cherry, excellent acidity, and a long crisp finish. It’s a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Clairette, and Syrah."
- I-WineReview (April 2012), 90 pts

Segries Tavel Rose 2010

"An absolutely brilliant dry rose, and an unexpected value, especially from the prestigious rose village of Tavel, is the 2010 Tavel Rose, a blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault and the rest Clairette and Syrah. The wine displays plenty of raspberry and strawberry fruit, super aromatics that engulf the taster, and a medium-bodied, zesty yet authoritatively flavored mouthfeel. Drink it over the next year. The color is a light, vibrant pink. The new releases from proprietor Henri de Lanzac are all impressive."
- Wine Advocate (June 30th 2011), 91 pts

Segries Tavel Rose 2009

"Powerful and focused, with a big core of red cherry, raspberry and red currant fruit laced with spice and tobacco hints. A nice stony note weaves in on the finish, adding length and cut. Drink now."

The Chateau de Segries Estate

In 1994, Henri de Lanzac, cousin of Christophe Delorme from Domaine de la Mordoree, purchased the Domaine and began to improve the quality of the wine. "Segries" in provencal means "water spring". This family owned and operated winery is located in Lirac and produces some of the best values in my portfolio. They produce the following A.O.C. wines:

* Tavel Rose

* Cotes du Rhone Rouge

* Lirac Rouge

* Lirac Blanc

"An old Lirac estate with recent signs of revival under the new owners; the reds are medium weight, good to drink inside six years; charming Tavel." - Anthony Dias Blue's pocket guide to wine 2006

"A super value treasure trove in the southern Rhone, Segries is a large estate of 109 acres brought back to life over the last decade by Henri de Lanzac. The wines continue to go from strength to strength."- Wine Advocate (#178, Aug. 2008)

"Over the last fifteen years, this property has been transformed into one of the better value producers in the Cotes du Rhone. The old, oxidized, vegetal offerings have been replaced with classic examples of Provencal wines that are fresh and fruity with ripe tannins." - Wine Advocate (#190, Aug. 2010)

"The new releases from proprietor Henri de Lanzac are all impressive." - Wine Advocate (#195, June 2011)

"This has been a reliable producer of terrific values in the Cotes du Rhone (and for their Tavel rose) for a number of years, and they have once again done an admirable job." - Wine Advocate (#201, June 2012)

The Chateau de Segries Vineyard

The Domaine Chateau de Segries owns 44.5 hectares of vineyard land (108.91 acres), all in old vines, 30 hectares in one piece alone:

- 4 ha (9.88 acres) in Cotes du Rhone.

Many of the vines date back to 1925, and were planted by the former owner Count de
