Waddesdon Rothschild Collection Merlot, IGP Pays d’Oc, France
£12.75 – £72.00 Buy Sourced from southern facing vineyards on the edge of Montpellier, with vines approaching 45 years of age.

A small proportion of the wine (10%) is aged in French oak. This helps to provide the merlot fruit with spice and texture. Spicy notes with eucalyptus and red fruit aromas on the nose, followed by sweet fruits and mellow tannins on the palate. An approachable and moreish Merlot! -

Rupert & Rothschild Classique 2020, Stellenbosch, South Africa
£22.00 – £118.80 Buy This is the first vintage to include Cabernet Franc in the blend, which lifts the texture making for a more elegant wine, although Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon still dominate the assemblage.
