91 points “A juicy and delicious Pinot Noir with strawberry and iron character.” – James Suckling
Escudo Rojo is a name that hides a delicious secret.
It means ‘Red Shield’ in Spanish – the language spoken in Chile from whence this wine came. Translated into German ‘Red Shield’ becomes ‘Rote Schild’ which is the root of the name Rothschild – the legendary dynasty that gave the world the First Growths Château Mouton Rothschild and Château Lafite Rothschild. That’s because this winery was launched more than two decades ago by Baroness Philippine de Rothschild bringing together Chilean soil and Bordeaux soul. Uniting South America’s perfect terroir with an unparalleled winemaking know-how the power of New World wines with the elegance of the Old World the Escudo Rojo wines represent outstanding value for money especially considering the family behind them.
Escudo Rojo’s Pinot Noir Reserva is like a hug from a fashion designer – warm effusive stylish larger than life but retaining its elegance at all times. Ripe cherry raspberry wild strawberry roasted almonds and dusty oak spices all mingle together to create a dazzling display of what was a spectacular vintage. This is one of those wines that is so perfectly balanced it can be paired with almost anything making it a fine choice to fill the wine rack with.
