A sleeper in this vintage, the 1975 Rauzan-Gassies may well be the best wine produced in the Margaux appellation after Palmer and Giscours. It has excellent dark ruby color, a deep, rich, oaky, black currant-fragrant bouquet, a chewy, full-bodied, very concentrated feel on the palate, and a tannic, long finish. Anticipated maturity: Now-2000. Last tasted, 5/84.
