2022 Baron Philippe de Rothschild Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva, Casablanca Valley, Chile (750ml)

WINEMAKER NOTES:

An attractive, dense and deep ruby red. Heady, complex and elegant, the nose opens on notes of black cherry, blackcurrant and strawberry jam then goes on the reveal roast coffee and red pepper aromas. The attack is full, powerful and succulent, while attractively mature tannins give the mid-palate a natural smoothness, revealing ripe berry fruit flavors together with delicate notes of fresh spice. The wine then expresses its full aromatic complexity, between notes of blackberry, bilberry and blackcurrant and flavors of mocha, toast and toasted almonds. The intense and complex finish reveals all the characters of the Chilean terroir, perfectly combining the elegance of Cabernet with the roundness and powerful flavors of Syrah and Carmenere.
