A great example of this estate, silky tannins, lean and slightly reserved dark fruits, riven with sage and spiced cumin fruits, hard to argue with and will be relative value. Great job from the family here. Score: 93 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2038 06 March 2025 |

The 2022 Rauzan Gassies continues to show plenty of pressed flower aromas on the nose, perhaps obscuring the fruit profile more than I would have liked. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, mocha-tinged black fruit and a solid finish that just lacks the finesse of its peers. This is not a bad Rauzan Gassies, though I need to be convinced of its longevity. Score: 90 Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2029-2040 12 February 2025 |

The 2022 Rauzan Gassies is an elegant, mid-weight Margaux. It's perhaps a bit ripe in this vintage but still classy. Dark-toned fruit, cloves, new leather and sweet spice are all nicely lifted throughout. Attractive floral overtones extend the finish. This will drink well with minimal cellaring. Score: 92 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2027-2042 28 January 2025 |

A Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blend that includes roughly 20% Merlot, the 2022 Château Rauzan-Gassies might end up being the finest vintage I've tasted from this château. Loaded with red, blue, and black fruits, it's medium to full-bodied, has supple, elegant tannins, classic aromatics of lead pencil and dried flowers, and outstanding length.

Pretty sample of RG this year with lots of blackberry and blackcurrant character. Full and juicy with solid tannins. Score: 94 - 95 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 04 April 2023 |
