Classified Second Growth in 1855 and owned by Chanel since 1994, Rauzan-Ségla represents Margaux at its most refined. The 2017 vintage—often overlooked between the celebrated '15, '16, and '18—offers elegant, accessible Margaux with the estate's trademark perfume and silky texture. Director Nicolas Audebert has elevated quality to rival First Growths, with meticulous vineyard work and precise selection. This shows violets, blackcurrant, and cedar, with fine-grained tannins that are already approachable. A window into Grand Vin Margaux without decades of cellaring.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2017 Rauzan-Ségla was bottled at the end of May 2019 according to winemaker Nicolas Audebert. It has a broodier nose than expected, perhaps a tad closed after bottling, but there is certainly sufficient blackberry and raspberry fruit, subtle pressed violet, soupçon of shucked oyster shell scents emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins struck through by a fine bead of acidity. It feels rounded and velvety in texture, quite persistent in the mouth with a caressing finish that perhaps does not quite deliver the complexity or pixelation of a really top growing season. Otherwise, plainly speaking, bloody delicious." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

"Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Rauzan-Ségla leaps from the glass with fragrant exotic spices and dried herbs over a core of blackberries, warm cassis and redcurrant jelly with hints of lavender and crushed stones. Medium-bodied, fine, fresh and elegant, it has soft, fine-grained tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing with an herbal lift." —Lisa Perrotti-Brown

"Only mid crimson. Good combination of energy, freshness, ripeness and interest on the nose. This is real wine and classic Margaux with zest and delicacy but with just the right amount of light tannins for the relatively light fruit. Long and classic."

Decanter

94 points

"Cinnamon, saffron, black truffles, toasted oak, cedar and damson; this is definitely a pretty sexy take on the vintage. No doubt the extraction had to be extremely carefully handled to get here, and they have done a good job with it. Feels like it has taken on weight during ageing without going too far."

Wine Spectator

94 points

"Inviting, with seductive damson plum, red currant, blackberry and black cherry puree flavors layered together, stitched with dried anise, sandalwood and black tea threads. Very fine acidity flows underneath, carrying this through a suave and lengthy finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot."

Wine Enthusiast

96 points

"This wine has a densely tannic structure and ripe berry fruits that are just beginning to shine. Acidity, spice and richness suggest this has good aging potential."
