Chateau Rauzan-Segla

There has been significant investment in Rauzan-Segla since it was purchased by the Wertheimer family (owners of Chanel) in 1994. The lovely chateau has been renovated, the cellars given a major makeover, and the vineyards expanded and restructured. Today the majority of the 74 ha of vineyards, which have been farmed organically since 2018, are located in the Cantenac plateau with a small parcel in the Margaux commune.

The Grand Vin is usually made up of over 60% of Cabernet Sauvignon, with around a third Merlot and a drop of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. They are sexy, dark-hearted Margaux wines with serious finesse and fine structure.

In 1787, Thomas Jefferson ordered ten cases of Rauzan-Segla following a trip to the Bordeaux region, declaring afterwards that “Rauzan Segla was truly at the top of the second growths” -  we agree that this is certainly again the case today.

We offer the following Margaux from Chateau Rauzan Segla:
