2011 Rothschild Cadet Claret

Went out for a meal last night and tried this Claret

This was deeply red (almost black), with an intense aroma which I found had hints of coffee.

The taste was incredibly rich, predominantly tasting of dark fruits, but with a vaguely caramelly sweetness. It was smooth, and, with its low alcohol content, went down very very well.

It also complimented the rare fillet steak I was eating

I think this is Mouton Cadet relabelled for the on-trade

Quite possibly

Honest claret but the restaurants I've been in which list it give excessive prominence to the Rothschild name and link it with Mouton.

Not to mention outrageous mark-ups.

That's a special bottle!

Sure does, does not sound like anything I would enjoy.
