Château Rauzan-Gassies, Second Growth wine estate in Margaux, France
The Château Rauzan-Gassies estate extends over 30 hectares of vineyards, planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot grape varieties in the Médoc region.
Pierre de Rauzan established the estate in 1661, after gaining experience as the manager of prestigious Châteaux Margaux and Latour in the Bordeaux wine region.
The wine labels feature a winged coat of arms, referencing a local tale of birds protecting the estate's grapes during a severe historical hailstorm.
The estate produces approximately 250,000 bottles annually, with grape harvesting performed through a combination of manual and mechanical methods.
The vineyard contains 12,000 vines per hectare, with an average vine age of 30 years, growing in deep gravel and sandy clay soils.
