Aussières Sélection Rouge Domaines Barons de Rothschild 2018
Pays d'Oc IGP
The wine history of this domaine dates back to Roman times. No wonder it stirred the interest of Baron Eric de Rothschild. He turned “exceptional potential” into reality and this fine Cabernet Syrah with its power, structure and depth is ample proof.

You’ll have heard of Château Lafite, “Bordeaux’s most famous property, synonymous with wealth, prestige and remarkable clarets” (Robert Parker). But did you know the winemaking team occasionally pick an estate from outside Bordeaux and polish it into a world beater worthy of the Lafite Rothschild name? Not many do. Fewer still get to try the wines. You have the opportunity here with Aussières, from a Languedoc estate purchased by Domaines Barons de Rothschild in 1999. It’s a rich, deeply flavoured red full of spicy southern French charm, set apart by rare elegance and complexity thanks to Lafite’s expertise. From the exceptional 2018 vintage, the wine has power, richness and depth. Open early and decant to pair with red meats or casseroles.
