I would like to put a legend label above a legend generated from PieChart / ChartLegends. The closest I could come is with

PieChart[{1, 2, 3, 4},
 FrameLabel -> {"Situations", "Score"},
 PlotLabel -> "Exemple de graphique en tarte",
 ChartLegends -> {"1", "2", "3", "4"},
 BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> 14, FontColor -> Black},
 Epilog -> Text["Situations", {1.2, 0.5}]
 ]

but the text "situation" is out of the plot area and is only partially visible, as seen below. I use MMA 10.0 enter image description here

You can add the option LegendAppearance:

PieChart[{1, 2, 3, 4}, PlotLabel -> "Exemple de graphique en tarte", 
 ChartLegends -> {"1", "2", "3", "4"}, 
 LegendAppearance -> {LegendLabel -> Style["legend", Red, 16]}, 
 BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> 14, FontColor -> Black}]

or, alternatively, use the LegendLabel option inside SwatchLegend:

PieChart[{1, 2, 3, 4}, PlotLabel -> "Exemple de graphique en tarte", 
 ChartLegends -> SwatchLegend[{"1", "2", "3", "4"}, 
   LegendLabel -> Style["legend", Red, 16]], 
 BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> 14, FontColor -> Black}]

to get
