Pauillac, in the heart of the Médoc North-East of Bordeaux, is one of the best-known appellations of the Bordeaux region, situated between Saint-Estèphe to the North and Saint-Julien to the south. The vineyard, which lies either side of the town of Pauillac itself, is mostly concentrated along the banks of the river Gironde.  Pauillac Baron Nathaniel is made from classic Bordeaux grape varieties – Cabernet Sauvignon (80%) finds its most perfect expression on this soil and in this climate, developing incomparable aromas and tannins that give the wine character and ageing potential; Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot (10%) give the wine its elegance, Merlot (10%) its supple fruit. The Baron range is made at Rothschild’s state of the art, 16 hectare Mouton Cadet winery located in Saint-Laurent-Médoc, where the wines are blended, aged and bottled. The wine undergoes an alcoholic fermentation at 25°C to 30°C followed by malolactic fermentation and is then partly aged in oak barrels for around 8 months.

Serve With

Perfect with grilled steak, venison fillets, pot roast, braised lamb or duck.

Tasting Notes

Baron Nathaniel Pauillac is a dark / crimson red colour. The nose offers ripe blackberry and toasty spice with a touch of minerality. This vintage is Cabernet Sauvignon based, which lends a firm backbone, quality tannins, and a core of blackberry fruit with plum fruit notes. Medium to full bodied and round in the mouth with fine tannins and a good length. This wine is surprisingly accessible now and drinking well, but will improve over 10 years or so.
