BARON PHILIPPE DE ROTHSCHILD ESCUDO ROJO

Escudo Rojo is a fine blend of traditional grape varieties grown in our own vineyard and in rigorously selected parcels by our partners. The Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Syrah and Cabernet Franc grapes are selected by our technical team and vinified in the Baron Philippe de Rothschild Maipo Chile bodega. Year after year, that subtle combination yields a round, complex and concentrated wine with attractively expressive fruit.

Tasting notes 2017

• Aspect : Crimson, with intense dark red highlights.

• Nose : The nose opens on an elegant combination of red and black fruit aromas, followed with airing by elegant spice and roasted coffee-bean notes.

• Palate : Ripe red and black fruit flavours emerge on the attack, followed on the mid-palate by powerful black fruit mingled with delicate spice and roasted coffee-bean notes. The fruit flavours found on the attack return, underpinned by beautifully refined tannins which give length and elegance to the finish.
