Chateau Rouget Pomerol 2020

96-97/100 James Suckling
"A full-bodied red with a dense, deep palate of ripe fruit, crushed stone and chocolate. Very round, creamy tannins that are nicely integrated. Shows very attractive potential."

95-97/100 Bernard Burtschy

94-95/100 Bettane & Desseauve

93-95/100 Falstaff

93/100 Decanter
"Powerful, as Rouget often is, with a skilful push and pull between power and finesse. Big-shouldered and intense, with plenty of chocolate and liquorice, excellent quality. Conversion to organic farming begun in 2020. Harvest September 15 to 30. 30% new oak."

92-94/100 Vinous
"The 2020 Rouget is laced with lavish, inky fruit, cedar, tobacco, menthol, licorice, cedar and tobacco. Rich, sumptuous and alluring, Rouget is all about immediacy. Plush and silky, with soft contours and exceptional balance, Rouget delivers the goods, and then some. The forward, lush style is hugely appealing."
