Nestled behind walls built over 200 years ago, in the heart of the Vertus Premier Cru vineyard on the Côte des Blancs, Le Grand Clos is a place untouched by time. This historic plot, planted before World War I, was vinified separately for the first time by Maison Barons de Rothschild, revealing a wine of rare purity. Entirely sourced from this unique vineyard, this exceptional Chardonnay embodies the most intimate expression of the terroir. Acquired in 2013 by the Rothschild family, this gem will only be unveiled when it is deemed ready, faithful to a demanding vision of time and precision.

Côte des Blancs
Located in the heart of the Vertus Premier Cru, on the prestigious Côte des Blancs, the Grand Clos is a rare site that has been walled for over two centuries. This single, south-facing parcel of chalky soil, typical of the region, offers ideal conditions for the purest expression of Chardonnay. Planted before the First World War, it produces grapes of great concentration, combining finesse, minerality and tension. This singular terroir, vinified separately for the first time by the Maison, reveals all the depth and identity of this unique clos.
