The history of the Rothschild family in the wine bussiness dates back to 1868 with the purchase of Chateau Lafite by James de Rothschild, in 1973 Baron Edmond de Rothschild (James’s great grandson) created Compagnie Vinicole Baron Edmond de Rothschild which produces this excellent wine. The vineyards at Chateau De Malengin are planted on south facing slopes which increases its sun exposure.
The grapes are hand picked and the entire harvest is hand selected and destemmed before entering the vat, after a month of maceration the wine is then carefully aged in French oak for 14 months. This wine shows great balance with its ripe black fruit, elegant oak, firm tannins and a long finish. Enjoy it with grilled meats and hard cheeses.
