CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
Aromas of tobacco, spice, earth and dark berries follow through to a full body with polished and velvety tannins, savory fruit and an orange peel and dried citrus undertone to the fruit. Give this three or four years to come together. Try after 2025.

With a deep purple-black color, the 2020 Rauzan-Gassies comes galloping out of the glass with powerful notes of warm cassis, stewed blackberries and Morello cherries, plus wafts of tar, raspberry leaves and sautéed herbs with a touch of black truffles. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy, featuring plenty of black fruit flavors and just enough freshness, finishing with a peppery kick.
