The estate
Grand Cru Classé of Margaux, the Château Rauzan-Ségla is one of those prestigious Bordeaux wines with a thrilling history. For 350 years, Rauzan-Ségla has sought precision by repeating the same gestures of a profession combining art and craftsmanship. Second Cru Classé in 1855, Château Rauzan-Ségla is one of the most prestigious references of the Margaux appellation.
The vineyard
A reference among the great wines of Margaux, Château Rauzan-Ségla watches over a 70-hectare vineyard. The vines, averaging 38 years old, are planted in the heart of the appellation on fine and deep clayey gravels.
The vintage
The dry and mild winter precedes a warm spring with regular rainfall. The summer is unstable, marked by alternating periods of heat, coolness, storms and dryness. If the harvest begins under high heat, two salutary rainy episodes bring freshness to the vineyard.

Parcel and intra-parcel vinification with gravity vatting, in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. Ageing for 18 months in French oak barrels (of which 55% are new).
Blend
Cabernet Sauvignon (85%)
