Château Rauzan-Gassies

A safe bet for the Margaux appellation, Château Rauzan-Gassies has its history dating back to the 17th century. The Bordeaux merchant Pierre Desmures acquired the house of Gassies in 1661, which was split into two more than a century later: the Château Rauzan on the one hand and the Château Rauzan-Gassies on the other.

During the famous 1855 classification for the Paris World's Fair, Domaine obtained the rank of Second Grand Cru Classé. Seduced by its terroir, Paul Quié became its owner in 1946. Today it is his grandchildren, Anne-Françoise and Jean-Philippe Quié, who perpetuate the tradition of this great Domaine.

The vineyard, planted on 30 hectares of deep gravel soils as well as sandy-gravel soils, is composed of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. The wines are aged for 18 months in oak barrels, 55% of which are new.

The Domaine produces a Second wine, Gassies, vinified with the same care as its elder.

The wines of Rauzan-Gassies are typical of Margaux, elegant, fine and complex, predestined for long aging.

Description Château Rauzan-Gassies 2024.

A vintage of climatic challenges, Château Rauzan-Gassies 2024 stands out for the rigor of its selections and the finesse of its expression.

Despite significant downy mildew pressure in the vineyard, meticulous vine management and rigorous sorting ensured that only the highest-quality berries were kept. The result is a precise, pure wine typical of the Margaux style.

The blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot reveals an elegant, velvety structure.

La robe is dark and brilliant, the refined nose evokes black fruits, violets and cedar, while the palate is soft, juicy and perfectly balanced, with supple but present tannins. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels (55% new), the wine is refined without masking the fruit.

This racy, delicate Margaux is a dynamic of precision and elegance. The recent recognition of Château as an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company) further underlines its roots in a tradition of excellence and authenticity.

An expressive 2024, with a bright future in the cellar.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
