Baron Nathaniel Baron Philippe de Rothschild 2018 75cl

Pauillac Red
Grapes  Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc

It is in 1853 that the Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, from the English branch of the famous family of patrons and bankers, buys Château Brane Mouton in Pauillac, in the heart of the Medoc. He renamed it immediately Château Mouton Rothschild. From the union of these two magic names will be born a wine of legend.

Over the years, he had the “Grand Chai” built, initiated the collection of artist labels, created the Musée du Vin dans l'Art, and obtained official Premier Cru Classé status for Château Mouton Rothschild. At the same time, he increased the family's wine heritage and in the early 1930s acquired a trading company, which would experience considerable development under its current name of Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA

In 1988, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild succeeded her father, Baron Philippe de Rothschild. With the charisma and energy that characterize her, soon effectively supported by her two sons Philippe and Julien, she always shines more light on the glory of Mouton Rothschild, without forgetting of course the other great family Châteaux wines: Armailhac and Clerc Milon in Pauillac, Opus One in California, Almaviva in Chile, Domaine de Baron'Arques in Pays d'Oc.

RED LAMB 2021 House Baron Philippe de ROTHSCHILD

Appellation:

This wine bears the Bordeaux label of origin. That is to say that Agneau Réserve comes mainly from parcels rigorously selected on the appellations of the Côtes: between Dordogne and Garonne, the 1^eras Côtes de Bordeaux. On the Gironde, right bank, Côtes de Blaye and Côtes de Bourg. On the right bank of the Dordogne, Côtes de Castillon and Côtes de Francs.

Terroir:

Flanks of clay-limestone slopes enjoying a remarkable exposure, limestone plateaus covered with clay layers mixed with the grave.

Bordering the Atlantic, the Muscadet Sèvre et Maine appellation is the appellation of the Loire located furthest to the West. It owes its name to the two rivers which cross the vineyard, the “Sèvre Nantaise” and the “Petite Maine”. It is also, with its 11 hectares, the largest single-varietal dry white wine appellation in France. Muscadet constitutes the “Lighthouse” appellation of the Nantes Wine Region.

Château MONTROSE 1993
2nd Grand Cru Classé Saint Estèphe Red 
Grapes 65% Cabernet Sauvignon 25% Merlot 8% Cabernet Franc 2% Petit Verdot
Second Wine The Lady of Montrose

Slightly damaged label


Details Domain

According to tradition, the Domaine de Montrose takes its name from its geographical location (mount) in relation to the village of Valros (val des roses) and the wild almond trees with pink flowers which border the estate's land. It is on this land steeped in history, as evidenced by the Romanesque tower of Valros, that the Coste family has lived since the end of the 17th century. This "young" estate (it was just a few years old at the time of the 1855 classification) benefits from the most beautiful vineyard in the appellation, in one piece overlooking the river. From 1896 to 2006, it belonged to the Charmolü family, and then became the property of the brothers Martin and Olivier Bouygues. This property today represents the model of vineyards due to the practicality of its layout: single vineyard, divided into square plots, separated by wide paths.

Comments

The estate is made up of a single and vast plot adjoining the Gironde to the east. He owes his early success both to the work of men and to the data of nature. This was also particularly generous: a geologically unitary soil composed of very deep red gravel, an ideal orientation, a gentle and regular slope and the proximity of the river which tempers the excesses of the climate. It is then up to men to reveal the full extent of this potential. 
Château Montrose wine is one of the flagships of the appellation. A deep, almost opaque color announces a very concentrated nose with multiple nuances. On the palate the wine is particularly firm with a complexity that only time can reveal in all its dimension. This concentrated wine has a very long aging potential. In great years, this wine develops a simply exceptional smoothness and roundness, as evidenced by the 1989 vintage which made Château Montrose a legend.

Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré 2018 75cl

2nd Wine of Léoville Poyferré

Grapes 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, 8% Petit Verdot

Château Léoville Poyferré produces elegant, very fine, balanced and complex wines, with intense color and velvety texture, and which have very good aging potential.

Castle

The castle was born from the successive divisions of the Léoville estate which belonged in the 1826th century to Alexandre de Gasq. In 1855 the estate was shared for the first time between Hugh Barton and Jean de Lascases. A few years later the latter gave his daughter in marriage to Baron de Poyferré and brought him as a dowry land taken from the family estate, called Léoville-Poyferré. The new vintage quickly built a solid reputation which earned it recognition in 1866. In 1920 the estate was bought by Mr. Lalande, whose descendants exploited it until XNUMX. It was then sold to the partners of the trading house. , H. Cuvelier et fils, which transformed into a civil company, Domaines Cuvelier. When Didier Cuvelier took charge of the estate, the wine had lost much of its splendor. In around twenty years he has masterfully raised the bar to produce full-bodied, long-lasting wines.

Comments

Despite its fragmentation, the Léoville-Poyferré vineyard benefits from a homogeneity of soil that few in Saint-Julien can claim. The vines here rely on fine gravel and deposits of wind-blown sand. It benefits from excellent exposure which allows the Cabernet Sauvignon, of respectable age, to mature in good conditions. However, this potential has not always been fully exploited. Its revival is due to Didier Cuvelier and Michel Rolland whose collusion is at the origin of very fine vintages. The construction of a new cellar in 1979 allows quality breeding. Buoyed by the success, the administrators are now planning an expansion of the vineyard in the coming years. The wine has a deep color, with a rich substance bursting with ripe fruit and spices. Its very present woodiness and the strength of its tannins
