Champagne Baron de Rothschild
The creation of Champagne Barons de Rothschild is the first project where the three Rothschild branches (Château Lafite Rothschild, Chateau Mouton Rothschild and Chateau Clarke) collaborated on a project.
From the beginning, the Rothschilds knew that they wanted Chardonnay to be the primary base for their champagnes—a bold choice, particularly for a new House, given that Chardonnay is the most scarce and most expensive grape in Champagne.
Produced in substantially limited qualities compared to more mainstream champagne producers, each bottle of Champagne Barons de Rothschild rests in cellars for four to five years—where “darkness and silence reign in respect for the fine Champagne in the making”—before it reached the market.
