What are the specificities of Château Rauzan-Gassies?
After the Second World War, in 1946, the Château Rauzan Gassies is sold to the Quié family, still owners of the Château Rauzan Gassies as well as Château Croizet-Bages in Pauillac and the Château Bel Orme Tronquoy de Lalande, Cru Bourgeois du Médoc.
This vintage has a personality at the antipodes of that of its twin. While Rauzan-Ségla is an archetype of Margaux, fine and delicate, Rauzan-Gassies can prove to be a monster of heaviness and brutality. To the point of being naturalized Saint-Estèphe during the blind tasting.
The vineyard situated on a gravelly and sandy soil gives birth to a wine composed of different grape varieties:
Vinified in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats ranging in size from 25 hectolitres to 150 hectolitres, the wine benefits from co-inoculation (alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation take place at the same time). The wine is then aged in 30% new French oak barrels for an average of 12 months.
In order to make the most of its terroir, the estate also produces a second wine, Chevalier de Rauzan Gassies.
