Chateau Rouget, Pomerol 2020

Chateau Rouget

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 96.0

At the end of the 19th century, a classification of Pomerol wines placed Rouget among the top five estates of the appellation. This recognition stems from the remarkable constancy showed by consecutive owners of the estate, who all worked hard to produce iconic wines. In 1992, Labruyère Family fell in love with Château Rouget. Convinced by the exceptional quality and potential of its terroir, they decided to purchase this dormant winery in order to bring it back to the forefront of the Pomerol appellation.

Chateau Rouget Pomerol is smooth and fruity, and has a beautiful concentration, with tension and a lot of freshness.

James Suckling

Lots of black olive with dark fruit and sandalwood on the nose. Full-bodied with layers of velvety and soft tannins, yet they stay vibrant and focused. Very integrated palate. Flavorful at the end. Drink after 2026.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown

The 2020 Rouget is a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it comes bounding from the glass with exuberant notes of plum preserves, chocolate-covered cherries, and mince pies, followed by hints of tilled soil, wild thyme, and tobacco leaf. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers mouth-coating juicy black fruit with spicy accents and a soft texture, finishing minerally.
