CRITIC REVIEWS
Jeb Dunnuck
I continue to love the 2016 Rauzan-Ségla, a thrillingly complete, flawlessly balanced, and borderline perfect Margaux that should be snatched up by readers. Notes of cassis, graphite, tobacco leaf, and earth all give way to a full-bodied effort that has building tannins, no hard edges, and a level of purity and elegance that’s just about off the charts. Given its purity and balance, it’s accessible today, but it will be best with 4-5 years of bottle age and keep for 3-4 decades.

Owned by Chanel, this 70ha estate continues to ascend as a star within the Margaux AP. Dark red fruit on the palate and nose, smooth, classy and ripe texture with fine-grained tannins and lovely acidity to keep everything fresh. Aromatic with lifted floral and tobacco notes, and a pronounced lead-pencil character. The oak (60% new) is beautifully integrated and this could easily warrant a higher score with a further 2-3 years in bottle.
