Baron Philippe de Rothschild is a historic French wine house founded in the early 20th century. While the Rothschild name is closely associated with Bordeaux prestige wines, the brand also produces accessible, high-quality varietals crafted with the same technical rigour.
The Merlot grape thrives in Bordeaux’s climate, producing wines that are supple, fruit-driven and smooth on the palate. This makes it ideal for both seasoned wine drinkers and those new to red wine.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Deep ruby red with violet highlights.
Aroma: Ripe red berries, plum and subtle hints of spice.
Palate: Soft tannins, medium body, juicy blackcurrant and cherry flavours with a smooth, rounded finish.
Food Pairing: Perfect with roast chicken, grilled meats, pasta dishes, cheese boards or chocolate desserts.
The wine’s smooth texture complements the nutty sweetness of Ferrero Rocher beautifully, creating a balanced tasting experience.
