Third wine of Chateau Rauzan-Ségla. Intense cassis and blackberry with earth notes sourced from younger vines. Egidio, you'd probably really like this. 92+ — 8 years ago
Smooth fruity nose. Reminds me as much of a Pinot Noir as it does of a Cabernet (not a lot of Nebbiolo experience is why). Soapy and steely attack on the palate. Some sweetness that I'd say stems from the 15% abv. Highly tannic, and that's also what lingers for ages. — 10 years ago
Black nose and bright red pallet with high flying acidity and a long finish. — 10 years ago

Solid stuff, a very nice glass. Thanks Mr Oberto! — 7 years ago
Lots of lavender, rosemary and rose. The wine still shows some signs of primary aromas and flavors of blackberries, plums and black raspberries. The oak comes through nicely as warm spice, cloves and sandalwood. All well integrated and with med+ acidity. The tannins are velvety. Mature and drinking wonderfully now but it should last another year or two in the cellar. — 9 years ago
constantly underestimated grape - here presented in perfect condition and showing culinary herbs, ridden saddle leather, autumn foliage and some fruital hints.
a quite adorable old lady!
certainly on a range with a. oberto, braida and vietti's barbera treatment skills, highlighted here the ability to age this low in tannin grape... — 10 years ago

Hard to beat for $20. Cherry, vanilla, tobacco, and black olive on the palate. Pairs with almost anything. So good for the money! — 5 years ago
