✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the legendary house of Baron Philippe de Rothschild, the Selection Agneau Rose is a vibrant tribute to the family's deep-rooted Bordeaux heritage. The name 'Agneau' (French for lamb) affectionately nods to the iconic 'Mouton' (ram) symbol that defines the family's prestigious estates. This refreshing rosé is typically composed of classic Bordeaux varietals like Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Produced using modern temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve its bright, aromatic profile, it captures the sunny, maritime-influenced terroir of the region. It offers a delightful bouquet of fresh red berries, redcurrant, and subtle floral notes, representing an accessible, elegant expression of Bordeaux winemaking tradition.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1933 by the pioneering Baron Philippe de Rothschild, Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA is an internationally revered wine company anchored in Pauillac, Bordeaux. Alongside governing Premier Grand Cru Classé flagship Château Mouton Rothschild, the house crafts benchmark négociant and estate wines extending across Bordeaux, the Languedoc, and Chile's Maipo and Casablanca Valleys. The viticultural approach pairs high-standard sustainable practices—notably Haute Valeur Environnementale (HVE) certification and eco-friendly plot selection—with meticulous varietal expression. Across maritime Médoc gravels, Mediterranean limestone clay, and Pacific-cooled Chilean alluvial deposits, winemakers craft crisp, aromatic, and structured white expressions. Notable bottlings include Bordeaux blends such as Sélection Agneau Blanc and Berger Baron Blanc, Languedoc single-varietals like Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc, alongside Chilean representations like Escudo Rojo Chardonnay Reserva and Las Huertas Chardonnay. Each cuvée reflects the firm's exacting balance of pure fruit vibrancy, textural precision, and classical restraint.
