Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva

Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc lend this Chilean red wine its sophistication and its powerful tannins, whereas Carmenere and Shiraz give it a fine spice, tightness and a full body. The multi-faceted bouquet unites notes of ripe blackberries, black cherries and black currants, complemented by nuances of roast aromas, coffee and pepper. On the palate, the Escudo Rojo is sumptuous, powerful and juicy, with an elegant tannin structure. Sumptuous, powerful wines with clear textures and velvety tannins are a real taste experience. In addition, they offer a delicious fruitiness. Half of the Escudo Rojo matured for 12 months in oak casks that are one year old. Enjoy this red wine from the Valle Central region with duck or lamb and chocolate cake.

Grenzenlos gut: die chilenischen Weine von Baron Philippe de Rothschild! Château Mouton-Rothschild in Pauillac bei Bordeaux ist das Lebenswerk des Barons Philippe de Rothschild, der es am 22. Oktober 1922 als junger Mann überschrieben bekam und es zu einem der berühmtesten Weingüter der Welt machte.

Rothschild ist in der Weinwelt ein Synonym für herausragende Qualität. Die Nachfahren von Philippe de Rothschild setzten 1997 ihre Pläne in die Tat um, ihre Weinbau-Expertise und das unverwechselbare Terroir Chiles zusammenzubringen. Geprägt von mehr als 4000 Kilometer Pazifik-Küste, den Küstengebirgen und den Anden bietet das südamerikanische Land einzigartige Anbaubedingungen.

In den chilenischen Spitzenanbaugebieten Valle de Maipo, Valle de Rapel sowie dem näher zur Küste gelegenen Valle de Casablanca reifen die Trauben für die Linie Escudo Rojo heran, was übrigens die spanische Übersetzung von „Rothschild" oder „rotes Schild" ist, dem ursprünglichen Wappen der Familie. 1997 ging Baroness Philippine de Rothschild zudem eine Partnerschaft mit dem chilenischen Spitzenweingut Concha y Toro ein.

Escudo Rojo Chardonnay Reserva
The Escudo Rojo Chardonnay is an attractive, shimmering straw yellow in the glass with vividly golden glints. The sophisticated, multi-layered bouquet offers subtle hints of white blossoms and roasted almonds, later releasing powerful, slightly exotic notes of white peach and mango, which coalesce elegantly with delicate roast aromas and fine nuances of vanilla.Initially, this wine is round and full-bodied on the palate, with much aromatic white fruit, complemented by subtle hints of fresh vanilla. Later, it is juicy, with an elegant melt and a perfect balance between exotic fruit, gingerbread and hazelnut.The expressive, prolonged finish is an excellent indicator of the meticulous selection of best Casablanca Valley vines. This wine shows a real explosion of blossoms, fruit and spices, leaving an intense, aromatic fullness, harmony and complexity on the palate, which is indeed the trademark of great, elegant Chardonnay wines from Chile!The Escudo Rojo Chardonnay comes from the Casablanca Valley, Chile’s region par excellence for white vines, particularly Chardonnay. Growing in vineyards located about 80 kilometres northwest of Santiago and just 30 kilometres as the crow flies from the Pacific Ocean, the vines benefit from a mild, maritime climate without sudden temperature changes, allowing the grapes to ripen in peace and preserve their juicy fruit aromas. In comparison to the vineyards situated further to the south, the grapes from the Casablanca Valley show slightly higher acidity, giving the Chardonnay a wonderful balance of aromas, alcohol and acidity.The Escudo Rojo Chardonnay is an ideal accompaniment to fish and seafood - grilled, roasted and with creamy sauces. It also goes beautifully with lobster with freshly whipped mayonnaise, salmon or tuna carpaccio, tender veal and vegetable terrines.
