Browse by Grape - Cabernet Sauvignon
Arguably the greatest red grape of France, producing the most majestic age-worthy wines, but also capable of thin and dilute or tough and tannic wine. With its green pepper and blackcurrant character this grape is the master of complexity and forms the backbone of Bordeaux's five First Growths, as well as comprising the majority of most classified 'right bank' wines. Italy's 'Super Tuscan' wines are largely Cabernet based. It is now also producing some of Australia and California's top bottlings, and is proving to be a star another quality producing countries such as South Africa and Chile.

This superb 5th Growth Pauillac is owned by the Rothschild family, now for the third generation. With vineyards perfectly positioned next to First Growths Lafite and Mouton, the only surprise is its classification isn't higher. A 95-pt masterpiece.

NOTE THIS IS A HALF BOTTLE (37.5CL)
The cooler 1998 has an elegant Cinsault dominance; the colour is lighter and more delicately perfumed than a typical vintage. Despite this initial impression, the wine is deceptively powerful with a vibrant acidity and fresh, soft red fruit flavours and a very long, spicy finish. The ideal partner to mushroom and game dishes.
