A very fine wine made from this increasingly popular Chateaux. Quite fragrant with soft elegant tannins. Should be a very refreshing drink in a few years time. (MFW 89-91) |

This is the finest wine I have tasted from this estate in my 30+ years of tasting. It reveals an extraordinary intense pure Chevalier style, with silky tannins and a full bodied, mouth feel and freshness. This is by far the best Chevalier in over 50 years! (RP April 2010) RP 93-97) (MFW 94-96) |

80% Cabernet Sauvignon 18% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Medium bodied with firm tannins, great purity and freshness on the palate. This is one of the best GPL that we have tasted for many years and is a credit to the tenacity of its owner Francois Xavier Borie, who since taking over the property has consistanly made good wines. This is one of our top 10 wines of the vintage. (MFW 93-95)(RP91-93) |

After the first sample was not tasting well. We all retasted Rauzan and were amazed by its sheer quality. It is possibly the best we have tasted since the early days of Rauzan before it was bought by Chanel. This is mainly due to the tenacity of John Kolasa and the whole team at Rauzan. Great acidity, balanced and fruity. Full bodied with layers of ripe fruit. (MFW 93 -95)(RP92-95) |
