Chateau Rauzan Segla 2021

Margaux

2nd Growth of 1855

Château Rauzan-Ségla 2021, a distinguished second growth from Margaux, showcases a compelling blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot, aged for 18 months in 60% new oak. This vintage reveals an inviting deep garnet color, with an expressive nose of blackcurrant, cassis, and dark cherries, interwoven with hints of violets, cedar, and a touch of graphite. The palate is richly textured and concentrated, offering layers of ripe black fruits, complemented by elegant tannins and a well-balanced acidity. Subtle notes of vanilla and spice from the new oak aging add complexity and depth, leading to a long, refined finish. Reflecting the meticulous vineyard management and winemaking improvements under Chanel's ownership, this wine stands out as one of the finest expressions of the second growths, embodying both power and finesse.
