A major appellation in the Medoc, Pauillac benefits from an exceptional terroir characterized by gravelly hilltops on a clay subsoil which ensures natural drainage and encourages the vines to develop deep roots. These are the perfect conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Legende Pauillac is made from grapes grown in Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite vineyards and, once again, the wines are made with the same attention to detail as for the Grand Vin. Produced from the properties' younger vines, these are classic , good quality wines. Their structure is less concentrated than their prestigious elders, allowing them to age more quickly, and after just a few months in the bottle, they offer an original, unique style, with the fullness and complexity for which the appellation is renowned.
