Tasting Notes
Vinous 97
The 2021 Rauzan-Segla is impressive. Dark, somber and brooding, the 2021 offers up a heady concoction of black cherry, plum, graphite, new leather, scorched earth, game and tar, all amplified in a dramatic, super-classic Margaux. I would not dream of touching a bottle anytime soon. I loved this en primeur, and I love it just as much today. Elevage made all the difference here. Tasted three times. [Antonio Galloni, 27/02/2024]
