CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2020 Rauzan-Segla is very perfumed and delineated on the nose, with vivacious black fruit, cassis and violet blossoming in the glass. The oak is very well integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite rounded and plush, but there is backbone and structure here. Very persistent on the finish, this is a Rauzan-Segla for the ages. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2020 Rauzan-Segla is aging for 18 months in French oak barrels, 60% new. It has an alcohol of 13.5% and a pH of 3.74. Deep purple-black colored, aromas of blackcurrant cordial, stewed red and black plums, chocolate-covered cherries and raspberry coulis erupt from the glass, leading to an undercurrent of tar, licorice, red roses and menthol, plus a hint of unsmoked cigars. The medium-bodied palate is elegant and yet manages seriously impressive intensity, which is well-sustained throughout the mid-palate and finish. Refined and refreshing, delivering beautifully soft, silt-like tannins and bags of bright red and black fruits, it finishes with amazing length and a stunning perfume. Between this and Chateau Canon, Nicolas Audebert and his team have knocked it out of the park this vintage.

60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc.Rich fruit and exotic notes of spice and tropical fruits. Very expansive with the fruit almost covering the very considerable tannins. Rich and broad, with real excitement on the palate. (JR)
