ripe fruit with sumptuous tannins
Château Olivier has been in the hands of the de Bethmannfamily since it was acquired by Alexandre de Bethmann in the late-19th century.The de Bethmann family are descended from German nobility, and grew into asuccessful banking dynasty, and so probably didn’t have any great shortage offunds; the acquisition of an attractive and ancient property such as Olivierwas probably not much of a fiscal challenge, especially if we consider thefamily also owned Gruaud-Larose at one point, and their bank made a significantcontribution towards the financing of the construction of the Eiffel Tower.
Serve with game, red meat, pork and cheese.
