The Wine
The 2014 Château Rauzan-Ségla is a quintessential Margaux, balancing power and finesse with remarkable precision. The cooler, classic conditions of the vintage favoured Cabernet Sauvignon, giving the wine poise, freshness, and aromatic clarity. This is a refined and elegant release, emblematic of Rauzan-Ségla’s modern renaissance under the stewardship of Chanel.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Expressive and perfumed, with aromas of cassis, violet, cedar, graphite, and subtle floral notes.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied, with dark fruit flavours of blackberry, plum, and blackcurrant framed by fine-grained tannins. Hints of tobacco, spice, and minerality add depth and complexity.
Finish: Long, polished, and refined, leaving a lasting impression of dark fruit and elegant Margaux perfume.
