As with the 1997, there’s a solid slathering of green in the 1994 Rauzan-Ségla, which is medium-bodied, and lightly textured, with bright acidity and a short finish. If you’re tolerant of green pepper, you’ll find much more to enjoy here than I do. Regardless, this isn’t getting any better. Score: 83 Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com 01 May 2019 |

A saturated dark purple color is accompanied by sweet, earthy, herb, and blackcurrant aromas. The wine is dominated by its tannin and structure. There is good weight, medium body, and an impression of ripeness and sweet fruit, but patience will most definitely be required. The 1994 Rauzan-Segla was deeper and richer prior to bottling, so I suspect it may be going through an ungenerous, post-bottling dormancy. This muscular, virile style of Rauzan should be at its peak of maturity between 2006-2020. Score: 87 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2006-2020 28 February 1997 |
