JAMES SUCKLING: "Creamy and tight tannins here, alongside succulent dark-berry, spice and crushed-stone notes. It’s medium-bodied, firm and focused with a velvety finish."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart tabakig unterlegte dunkle Beerenfrucht, frische Kirschen, Orangenzesten, dezente Holzwürze ist unterlegt. Saftig, komplex, ein Hauch von Dörrobst, runde Tannine nussiger Touch im Abgang, bereits entwickelt."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Freshness, flowers, ripe, fruits, soft-tannins, and a relaxed approach work well here. The wine is medium-bodied, with vibrancy in the fruits, and lift in the currant, chocolate, espresso, and licorice-filled finish. Drink from 2028-2043."

JEB DUNNUCK: "The 2023 Château Rauzan-Gassies is deeply hued, with an impressively concentrated, balanced, medium-bodied style. It has ample upfront oak at this point, yet it’s balanced by solid red and black fruit as well as some classic Margaux spicy, floral nuances. Concentrated, rich, and textured, with ripe tannins, it's going to round into form nicely with just short-term bottle age."
