L’Épiphanie de Pauillac is the latest of our secret releases from iconic Bordeaux châteaux. It's from Pauillac’s top tier – a Premier Grand Cru Classé estate. There are only five in Bordeaux and three in the appellation: Lafite Rothschild, Mouton Rothschild and Latour.
We guarantee this wine is from one of them. It isn’t their Grand Vin, of course, but it’s made from the same fruit by the same winemaker and housed in the same barrels. Yet it costs less than 1/16th of the Grand Vin’s price.
L’Épiphanie de Pauillac has blackcurrant, cherry and ripe plum infused with subtle spice, cedar and cigar box notes. These classic aromas combine with firm tannins for a complex wine with a long finish. By all means open a bottle now, but cellaring will pay dividends.
As John Lehmann, in The Australian, writes: "If a wine can smell like a special occasion, this is it. A beautiful nose evokes Christmas cake with marzipan, pencil shavings and black currant, with some cigar, leather and cedar. A rich palate delivers blackcurrant and ripe plum, a touch of dark chocolate and mocha with soft, mature tannins. Decant for a couple of hours if you can’t wait but this will cellar well." 13.5% alc.
