Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite ‘Réserve Spéciale’ 2019/20, Médoc

Description

Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite is not only one of the most prestigious winemaking names in Bordeaux, but in the world. Their coveted top wines sell for hundreds, even thousands, of pounds a bottle – that is, if you can get your hands on them. The Réserve Spéciale gives you a taste of the greatness for a far more accessible price. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is harvested from the best vineyards in the appellation. It’s crafted with the utmost care by Bordeaux native winemaker Diane Flamand. You’ll get all you could ask for in a fine Médoc: elegance, balance, and silky tannins. Expressive aromas of ripe fruit, leather and oak make this a superb partner for roast lamb.
