Product Notes

Baron Edmond de Rothschild, a name synonymous with luxury and finesse, has produced a rare gem in the form of Rimapere Sauvignon Blanc. A tribute to the baron's legacy and love for wine-making, this wine is a perfect blend of opulence and elegance. The grapes used in the production of Rimapere Sauvignon Blanc are sourced from the baron's own vineyards in Marlborough, New Zealand. The result is a wine with a delicate yet complex flavor profile, featuring notes of citrus, stone fruit, and a hint of herbaceousness. With its bright acidity and balanced finish, Rimapere Sauvignon Blanc is a fitting tribute to the baron's legacy and a wine connoisseur's delight.
