The Wine
Rich vibrant Napa Valley Cabernet meets impeccable Bordelais winemaking in this exceptional offering from the Moueix family. Back in the late 1960s, California made a big impression on a great many people, including young Christian Moueix, who was studying at UC Davis at the time. He fell in love with the Napa Valley and its wines, and made frequent visits after graduating. In 1981 Christian discovered the Napanook Ranch and was blown away by the quality of their Cabernet. He soon became a partner in the property, finally buying it outright in 1995. The estate’s top wine retails at over £200, making Othello remarkable value for money. Crafted from the fruit of younger vines, it’s approachable in its youth – enjoy with rare steak or lamb.
