Champagne Barons de Rothschild Brut NV

Description

Champagne Barons de Rothschild is the first time that the three Rothschild families, who are associated with some of the most prestigious wines in the world, have come together to creat a true Rothschild family product. The Champagne House was created by Baroness Philippine (Chateau Mouton), Baron Eric (Chateau Lafite) & Baron Benjamin (Chateau Clarke), people who don’t give their name to just any old wine project. The wines is made from a selection of premier and grand cru Champagnes sourced from some of the best wine-growers in the heart of the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims regions – where the very best wines are produced. Based on their experience in Bordeaux wines, the family works with its partners on an equal footing and liaises with the growers very closely for vineyard management. The blending is only carried out using “cuvées” (first pressings), with all “tailles” being automatically graded separately and resold. Each Barons de Rothschild Champagne has the exceptional characteristics of a great champagne. These pure, delicate, complex cuvées embody the essence of the Family’s winemaking values : perfection, constancy, and a spirit of excellence and refinement. The creation of each Champagne is a lengthy and delicate process, involving a minimum of three years ageing in the cellars. The wines owe their maturity to their low sugar level (dosage) and their long ageing after disgorgement (6 to 9 months). The blends contain 40% reserve wines, a mark of exceptional quality and consistency over time. Champagne Barons de Rothschild Brut NV is made by blending 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier wines, sourced from the best terroirs (Verzenay, Ay, Mareuil-sur-Ay and Bouzy) which are at aged at three years. It has a low dosage and is kept for at least six months after the disgorgement process prior to release. Read more here.rnrn
