The passion for wine that runs in the French branch of the Rothschild family was born in 1868 when James de Rothschild purchased ChĂ¢teau Lafite. After more than a century of family history tied to the world of wine, Baron Edmond de Rothschild (great-grandson of James) took the adventure further in 1973 by acquiring two Cru Bourgeois wines in Listrac and Moulis-en-MĂ©doc: ChĂ¢teau Clarke and ChĂ¢teau Malmaison. He then founded the Compagnie Vinicole Baron Edmond de Rothschild.
Region Info/ Origin
Pauillac is home to several of the world's most famous wine and the region lies in an inauspicious small village in MĂ©doc. Pauillac sprawls over the land size of about 8.8 square miles, is highly optimised for wine production and accounts for a rather disproportionate amount of fine, expensive wine in Bordeaux.
