Château Rauzan-Ségla 2020

Kommentar

Full-bodied and layered with velvety layers of tannins that are beautifully interspersed with ripe fruit and dark-chocolate notes. Silky and lightly chewy texture. Very long, solid finish. 97-98/100.

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, silk-like tannins and bags of bright red and black fruits, it finishes with amazing length and a stunning perfume. Between this and Château Canon, Nicolas Audebert and his team have knocked it out of the park this vintage. 96-98/100. Lisa Perrotti-Brown.

Was für eine schöne Frische, so typisch für Margaux mit seinen einladenden Noten von schwarzer Johannisbeere und Pfefferminz. Am Gaumen ist der Wein cremig, charmant und elegant. Seine Kraft offenbart sich langsam, im Crescendo, und bildet eine Symbiose mit dem Charme und der Rasse des Weines. Ein feiner Wein, tanninhaltig, elegant und bereit, mit der Zeit zu gehen… wenn man ihn lässt! 2027-2055 96-97/100.

Tumeric and cumin spices alongside concentrated cassis and bilberry fruits, this has a powerful structure where the tannins layer up through the palate. There is no question that this is intense, and a reflection of the low yields of the vintage, but Rauzan Segla manages what it always does, which is to take the foot off the pedal at exactly the right moment, and allow the juice to come rushing in. The push and pull of muscular tannins and deft supple acidity gives an extra layer of success. Should be ready to drink a little earlier than the biggest years such as 2016 or 2019, but this will still age for decades. 1% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Harvest began September 8, a yield of 30hl/ha. 60% new oak. Tasted twice. Drinking Window 2028 - 2044. - Jane Anson.

Kommentar

Dark purple red with violet hue and black core. Fragrant nose with aroma reminiscent of fresh blackcurrants, ripe elderberries, red forest berries, with hints of mild spices and fine toasting aroma in the background. On the palate well balanced and structured with aromatic depth, ripe blackcurrants and blackberries candied Morello cherries, subtle oak complemented by hints of gingerbread and oriental spices. A wine with ripe tannins, freshness, complexity, excellent length and depth in a truly classic style. 96+/100.

Couleur pourpre, intense et belle. Très beau nez intense, fin, subtil, frais, mûr, floral et même complexe. Moelleux en entrée de bouche, très savoureux au milieu, avec du corps, du fondant, le vin évolue nuancé dans ses appuis tanniques, vers une finale aux tannins fins, délicieuse et longue.
