The Aussières Rouge 2023 is a distinguished expression of Southern French winemaking, crafted at the historic Domaine d’Aussières estate in the Corbières. Proudly owned and revitalised by the prestigious Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite).
Drawing on centuries of Bordeaux expertise, the Rothschild family has transformed this estate into a benchmark for quality in the Languedoc, combining tradition with precision and innovation. The result is a wine that carries the unmistakable signature of Lafite: elegance, balance, and refinement.
This carefully composed blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan delivers both character and complexity. Syrah provides structure and spice, Grenache brings generous ripe fruit, while Mourvèdre and Carignan add depth and a subtle earthy sophistication.
On the nose, the wine reveals blackberries, dark cherries, and wild Mediterranean herbs, layered with notes of pepper, liquorice, and delicate oak. The palate is smooth and rounded, supported by fine tannins and a long, harmonious finish, showcasing remarkable finesse for its origin.
What truly sets the Aussières Rouge 2023 apart is its unique position: a wine shaped by the heritage and precision of one of Bordeaux’s most revered names, yet expressing the sun-drenched character of the South of France.
Perfect pairing. This versatile red pairs beautifully with:
- Grilled meats and lamb
- Roast poultry such as chicken or duck
- Mediterranean dishes and roasted vegetables
- Mature cheeses like Comté or aged Gouda
The Aussières Rouge 2023 offers a rare combination of Rothschild pedigree and everyday drinkability, making it an exceptional choice for both enthusiasts and casual wine lovers.
