Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite Legende Pauillac 2015 Review
This wine is a great education on the wines of Pauillac - the most famous commune of Bordeaux - for a lower price (yes $45 is actually a lower price, but worth it). It is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon dominant blend with 30% of Merlot, showing notes of rose petals and lavender with round blackberry tomes (cherries, blackberries). All this carries to the palate with the added aromas of subtle cocoa. This wine has some powerful tannins but will soften over time.
