Champagne Barons de Rothschild Concordia Brut NV

To ensure the absolute highest quality, Champagne Barons de Rothschild Concordia Brut is blended exclusively from the “cuvées” – the pristine, first pressings of the grapes. All “tailles” (subsequent pressings) are strictly rejected from the blend and sold on to other Champagne houses. This uncompromising selection underpins the hallmark house style: exceptionally elegant, low-dosage Champagnes defined by the crisp finesse, purity, and dominance of premium Chardonnay.

Winemaking

• Grands & Premiers Crus Blend: A sophisticated cuvée composed of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, with an impressive 85% of the total grapes sourced from highly rated Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards.
• Prestigious Terroirs: The Chardonnay is primarily selected from top Côte des Blancs sites (including Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Trépail, and Vertus), while the Pinot Noir comes from the region’s finest terroirs (Verzenay, Aÿ, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, and Ambonnay).
• High Reserve Wine Content: Reserve wines make up 40% of the final blend, with the majority drawn from the house’s meticulously managed “Réserve perpétuelle” (a solera-type) system to guarantee consistent depth and complexity.
• Extended Cellar Ageing: The wine is aged on its lees for a minimum of 4 years in the cellars before disgorgement, followed by an additional 6 months of resting post-disgorgement to ensure perfect integration before release.
• Low Dosage: Finished with a precise, low dosage of 6 g/L, letting the natural finesse, purity, and terroir of the fruit shine through.

The Birth of Champagne Barons de Rothschild

Champagne Barons de Rothschild was founded in 2003 by three of the most esteemed names in global winemaking: Baroness Philippine (Château Mouton Rothschild), Baron Eric (Château Lafite Rothschild), and Baron Benjamin (Château Clarke). These legendary figures do not lend their names to just any project.

Their headquarters in Reims was opened in 2007 on the corner of the Boulevard Lundy and the Camille Lenoir Street. In the same year, the company also acquired a wine-making facility and cellars in Vertus with the acquisition of Maison Prieur. The first Champagne was launched in 2009. The Brut is now joined by Brut Nature, Blanc de Blancs, Rosé and luxury cuvées.

Based on their combined experience in Bordeaux (and at wineries around the world) the family works with its partners on an equal footing, maintaining a close, collaborative relationship with growers to oversee meticulous vineyard management.
