£527.52 |
|||||
Wine Enthusiast (94)Rich, opulent and full-bodied, this wine has great concentration and is packed with notes of apricot, spice, lemon and toast. Its texture brings in minerality as well as a tangy edge. Drink from 2024. |

|||||
Jeb Dunnuck (92+)One of the more structured wines in the vintage is the 2015 Chateau Rauzan-Gassies. Deep ruby/purple colored with a fabulous bouquet of currants, charcoal, black cherries and crushed rocks, it is a full-bodied, incredibly pure, concentrated Margaux that has integrated tannin and a focused, chiseled feel. Forget bottles for 5-6 years and it should reward for upwards of two decades. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90+)The 2017 Rauzan Gassies is expressive and full of energy, but also done in a somewhat compact style. Dried cherry, iron, mint, white pepper, grilled herbs, cedar and tobacco come together in the glass. I very much like the wine's energy, even if the contours are a bit austere today. The 2017 could turn out to be even better than this note suggests if the tannin soften. |

James Suckling (94-95)Complex aromas of blackcurrant, black truffle, walnut, bark and earth follow through to a full body with dense, refined tannins that are layered and chewy, yet silky. Very long finish. Best since 2015? |

Bordeaux | 3 | 16.5 (JR) |
Inc. VAT
£287.00 |
|||||
Jancis Robinson (16.5)Crimson with a pink rim. Lots of freshness on a lifted nose. Solid rendition with enough fruit for the acidity even if without much distinction or character. No one would be disappointed by this wine. Tannins are ripe enough and not too dominant. A very good effort for this château. |

James Suckling (94-95)Pretty sample of RG this year with lots of blackberry and blackcurrant character. Full and juicy with solid tannins. |

Inc. VAT

James Suckling (93-94)Creamy and tight tannins here, alongside succulent dark-berry, spice and crushed-stone notes. It’s medium-bodied, firm and focused with a velvety finish. |

Bordeaux | 1 | 94 (WS) |

Wine Spectator (94)Best Rauzan-Ségla in modern times. Dark, inky color, intensely minty and smoky with an abundance of fruit. Full-bodied, very fruity, with a lovely minty berry and vanilla aftertaste. Best after 2002. 8,300 cases made. |
