Saint-Emilion Rouge AOC 'Legende R' 2022 (750 ml.) Domaines Barons de Rothschildhild
The Saint-Émilion Rouge AOC “Légende R” 2022 by Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) embodies the elegance of Bordeaux’s Right Bank with a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc grown on clay-limestone soils that provide structure, finesse, and intense aromas. After hand harvesting and meticulous selection, the grapes ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and aromatic precision, followed by aging in French oak barrels to add complexity and suppleness. The bouquet reveals black cherry, blackberry, ripe plum, cocoa, and sweet spices, while the palate is velvety, balanced, and persistent, with silky tannins and a long harmonious finish. Perfect with roasts, lamb, game, and aged cheeses.
