Escudo Rojo Carmenere. The nose opens on ripe black berry fruit aromas, joined on airing by notes of roasted coffee beans and black pepper. From a highly expressive attack on the black fruit found on the nose, the peppery notes that emerged with airing return on a midpalate which combines power with heft. The finish lingers on an intense array of black fruit, spice and roasted coffee bean flavors.

In 1999, the encounter between Chilean soil and Bordeaux expertise gave rise to Escudo Rojo, a branded wine worthy of the Baron Philippe de Rothschild name, synonymous with the high standards of a great winemaking tradition.Discovered by the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, Chile soon proved to be a remarkable place for cultivating vines. As well as having high quality soil and good weather, Chile’s vineyards have always been protected from pests by the natural barriers of the Andes mountains, the coastal range which separates the valleys from the sea and the desert to the north and south.
