BARONS DE ROTHSCHILD / CHAMPAGNE
The three branches of the Rothschild family (Lafite-Rothschild, Mouton-Rothschild, and Baron Edmond de Rothschild) have joined forces to produce one of the world's finest Champagnes. Located in the heart of Champagne, the wines are made almost exclusively from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards.
This cuvée is a complex blend of 60% Chardonnay primarily from the Côte des Blancs Grands crus and Premiers crus; and 40% Pinot Noir primarily from Verzenay, Ay, Mareuil-sur-Ay, and Ambonnay…
Reserve wines are used for up to 40% of the blend, an exceptional sign of quality and regularity over time.
This subtle blend produces a wine with fabulously fine bubbles, elegant golden colour and fine, delicate nuances of white fruit. Low dosage and at least six months’ time after disgorging gives this Champagne beautifully balanced structure on the palate that is highly appreciated when served as the aperitif or throughout the meal.
