98 100Jeff LeveShowing a depth of color, at first, you are almost overwhelmed by the violets, cherries and tobacco in the perfume. The initial sip shows off its character with elegance, vitality, and purity. Everything is in balance and harmony here. The silk and velvet finish is almost too much of a good thing. From start to finish, the wine is seamless, and even though there is intensity and serious concentration, the wine feels almost weightless, making this deceptively easy to drink. Yet, don't be fooled. It has all the goods needed to age and evolve for decades. The wine blends of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon. 33% Merlot, 1.5% Petit Verdot and .5 Cabernet Franc. 13.5% ABV. 3.67 pH. Harvesting took place September 2 - September 24. Yield were 29 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2030-2070. Mai 2026.

97 100DecanterGorgeous vibrant pink rim to the wine with violet aromas on the nose, very dark but very perfumed and not at all hot or sunny. So juicy and alive with structure – the soft tannins give the outline while the real fruit purity sits in the middle. I love this a lot, very approachable, streamlined and focused with layers of fine tannins and brightness. You can feel the concentration in the construction but this carries a really fun, friendly, welcoming aspect because of the juiciness on the mid-palate. 50% grand vin production. 3.67pH. Ageing 18 months, 60% new oak. 0.5% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Drinking window: 2034 - 2048. Georgina Hindle. April 2026.

97 100Jean-Marc QuarinCouleur sombre, intense, belle, aux reflets noirs. Nez très aromatique, au fruité mûr redoublé d'une touche rare de violette. Ensemble pur et délicat. Ultra minutieux en entrée de bouche, avec un grand éclat fruité floral au milieu, le vin se déroule parfumé, délicat et savoureux vers une longue finale puissante au grain fin. C'est superbe ! Assemblage : 65 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 33 % Merlot, 1,5 % Petit Verdot, 0,5 % Cabernet Franc. Degré d'alcool : 13°5 - pH : 3,67. Vin de presse : 14 %. Rendement : 29 hl/ha. A consommer de préférence entre 2037 et 2080. Avril 2026.

99 100Yves BeckD'entrée la profondeur est perceptible dans le bouquet de Rauzan-Ségla, tout comme la pluralité ! Les nuances d'épices douces se manifestent discrètement, tandis que d'invitantes notes de violettes et de mûres, complétées par une touche de poivre noir, soulignent fraîcheur et maturité. L'attaque onctueuse annonce un vin ample et puissant. Il crée le lien entre charme, puissance et tempérament avec une rare cohérence et la finesse pour leitmotiv. Un vin qui s'illustre par le caractère incisif de sa structure acide et par la touche suave de ses tannins dans un contexte tonique avec un exceptionnel afflux d'énergies. Un très grand vin. 2030-2070. 98-99/100. Avril 2026.

Dark and deep purple, with almost black reflections.
Fine and fruity, pure and subtle, with aromas of blackcurrant and blackberry, followed by refreshing menthol notes and a touch of Sichuan pepper.
This vintage has a melting body and fine-grained, velvety tannins in harmony with the refreshing acid structure. This wine is marked by finesse and length.
