This Second Growth Margaux Cru Classé has the beautiful, lithe character that is so sought-after from this region, along with satisfying intensity and richness. Packed with dark berry fruit, fresh coffee and woodsmoke nuances, the palate impression evolves into spice, red berries and lovely texture, thanks to the consummately fine, silky tannins.

Press Review
" Fantastic aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants and strawberries follow through to a full body, super-integrated tannins and an extremely long finish. The bright acidity gives the wine a linear edge that focuses in all the fruit. Minerally. Drink in 2021. "
Press Review
" The 2014 Rauzan-Ségla is just as impeccable from bottle as it was from barrel. Silky, perfumed and nuanced in the glass, the wine exudes finesse. Expressive floral notes, spice and succulent red/purplish stone fruits are all beautifully delineated. In 2014, Rauzan-Ségla is a wine of understated class with the potential to improve for several decades. Drink 2020-2044. "
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested by hand; fermentation and maceration take place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks, which lasts about 3 weeks depending on the vintage. During the period of fermentation, the wines in the tank are pumped over the cap twice per day. The wine then sees 20 months of ageing after malo-lactic fermentation, in barriques from the Tronçais forests of France. During the ageing period, the wines are racked every 3 months to remove sediments. Once barrel ageing is complete, the wines are fined with egg whites in the traditional manner before bottling.
