Flavors of black cherry, plum, and tobacco dance on the tongue, while a touch of minerality adds depth and complexity. The finish is long and smooth, leaving a lingering impression of elegance and balance. This wine is a true testament to the skill and expertise of Château Rauzan-Ségla, and is sure to delight any lover of Bordeaux wines. Enjoy now or cellar for even more depth and refinement.
Winemakers Notes
Rauzan-Ségla, an epitome of classicism. The year 1661 marked the inception of Rauzan-Ségla, when Pierre de Rauzan acquired the esteemed Gassies estate, laying the foundation for its storied legacy. With a keen vision, he went on to acquire the vineyard parcels that now constitute the heart of Rauzan-Ségla's vineyards. In 1994, when CHANEL acquired this Second Classified Growth, and later Château Canon, a Premier Grand Cru Classé in Saint-Emilion in 1996, it ushered in a new era for the château. In 2017, CHANEL expanded its portfolio further by adding Château Berliquet, a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé. Rauzan-Ségla's sprawling 70-hectare vineyards are home to all four Bordeaux grape varieties. They embrace the diverse geologies and soils found within the Margaux appellation, proudly showcasing this rich diversity. The layout of the Rauzan-Ségla vineyards resembles a captivating puzzle or mosaic, a seemingly fragmented landscape that paradoxically imparts its unique strength. Rauzan-Ségla wines derive their complexity from this intricate mosaic of soils and grape varieties. Crafting each vintage requires a delicate dance of adaptation, transformation, and composition, resulting in a wine that is distinctly specific to the year and terroir. It's worth noting that the estate commenced its conversion to organic farming in 2021.
