This one’s specially for Hal Briston
It’s Rothschild’s ‘lesser’ wine. I originally purchased this as a presentation half-case to give to someone for Christmas, but the opportunity to gift it never arose. I actually thought it was a mixed (i.e. bottles of red and white wines) case until I cracked open the wooden case, but it’s 6 bottles of a lovely red claret. Smooth and full bodied and ready for drinking now, though I’ve no doubt you could lay it down. I’ve variously enjoyed it with steak; steak and ale pie; and a cheese, beef, and tomato submarine.
Yum.
