Vintage 2014
Barons de Rothschild Vintage 2014 Champagne with box is ideal for all your special occasions and gifts.
Tasting Notes
The robe is silky and golden, the effervescence fine and generous.
A saline approach, very expressive, reveals a nose dominated by Chardonnay, fresh and lemony. The chalky minerality is supported by aromas of exotic fruits and then by grilled and spicy notes at the opening reminiscent of Pinot Noir.
The ample and structured attack is supported, in a perfect balance, by saline and fresh raspberry notes. The spicy finish is enhanced by hints of almond and roast, making this a wine of both delicacy and character.
Food pairings
The Barons de Rothschild Vintage 2014 champagne will stand out as an aperitif, or go perfectly with hot or cold shellfish or poultry in sauce such as a duck breast.
