Médoc 'Lègende R' by Rothschild is a beautiful interpretation of the protagonist of the Médoc, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, harvested with rigorous selection and harvested at the perfect degree of ripeness. The usual Rothschild precision in the cellar, the reduced yields and the impeccable maturity of the grapes and finally the fermentation half in steel and half in oak barrels from 3 to 9 months give life to a wine capable of exciting for its bouquet characteristic broad and complex, with aromas of black fruits that blend perfectly with notes of sweet spices and toasted, and for the taste velvety and full-bodied, round, with a spicy and persistent finish. Excellent to serve in the company of roast meats.

Owner of Château Lafite Rothschild for five generations, the Rothschild family has been associated with the vineyards of Bordeaux since 1868 and today owns Châteaux Lafite Rothschild, Duhart Milon, L’Evangile and Rieussec.
In addition to the wines produced from their prestigious vineyards, the Barons de Rothschild have for many years created a range of more accessible wines for everyday drinking. Initially created at the request of family and friends, these were known as the “Réserves des Barons”. In a continuation of this tradition, Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) decided to produce the Réserves in four major Bordeaux appellations:: Bordeaux, Bordeaux Blanc, Médoc and Pauillac. In creating the Collection, DBR (Lafite)’s objective is to offer classic Bordeaux wines with immediate charm.
