Chateau Rauzan-Gassies, 2ème G.C.C, 1855 Margaux 1998 jean-luc-mader hand harvested Chenin Blanc"Allocation only, email wine@worldwine. com. au to secure allocation" The 1998 Rauzan Gassies is somewhat tannic, austere and rustic, but dense ruby purple, yet possesses some serious concentration and body. The angularity and astringency of the tannins are a distraction, raising doubts about whether this wine will ever fully come together. However, it has plenty of up side potential and will keep and evolve.
