Winemaker Notes
Escudo Rojo Reserva Pinot Noir is sourced from a selection of the best parcels in the Casablanca Valley. Bringing its Burgundy style, Baron Philippe de Rothschild has created an elegant and highly refined wine.
Colour: An attractive, light colour.
Nose: very complex and fresh, with intense, forward fruit on cherry and raspberry mingled with gentle toasted almond notes.
Palate: the wine has a very good attack, on elegant and succulent tannins. Fruit flavors emerge on the mid-palate, especially cherry, while the elegant finish combines the fullness of fresh fruit with the refinement of the Casablanca terroir.
Product Description
Escudo Rojo Rosé is a fine blend of traditional grape varieties grown. The Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Syrah and Cabernet Franc grapes are selected by a 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
Aspect : An attractive, dense, bright and deep ruby red.
Nose : Generous, complex and intense, the nose opens on intense blackberry, black cherry and wild strawberry aromas, going on to reveal black berry fruit mingled with elegant toasted almond and roast coffee notes.
Palate : After a powerful, complex and generous attack, the richly smooth mid-palate reveals raspberry, blackberry and wild bilberry flavours underpinned by very mature tannins. The wine’s full aromatic complexity then comes to the fore on black fruit flavours, mingled with black pepper and coffee and enhanced by some slightly toasted notes. The powerful and stylish finish reveals all the character of the Chilean terroir, perfectly combining Cabernet elegance with the roundness and powerful flavours of Syrah and Carmenere.
This wine comes from the Valle de Casablanca, situated near the Pacific Coast 80 km north west of Santiago. The ocean influence is very strong, helping to regulate the temperature. It is ideal country for white wine grape varieties, especially Sauvignon Blanc.
Baron Philippe de Rothschild Maipo Chile’s winemakers have chosen the Valle de Casablanca vineyards for their mild climate, which allows the grapes to ripen slowly, and for their soil: silty sand, which favors the refinement and freshness of the fruit, and granitic soil closer to the coastal mountains, which brings elegance. The wines are fresh and mineral, while keeping a certain power and a remarkable balance between alcohol and acidity.
Varietal Composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Tasting Notes: The nose opens on powerful citrus fruit aromas, followed on airing by delicate notes of white blossom and tropical fruit. The refined and fresh attack reveals subtle notes of white blossom and guava, leading into an intense and dense midpalate marked by an explosion of citrus fruit flavors recalling the aromas found on the nose. White blossom flavors return on the elegantly mineral finish.
Color: a beautiful, glittering pale yellow
Color: a beautiful, glittering pale yellow with a greenish tint.
Nose: intense, powerful and highly aromatic, the nose opens on notes of white blossom and blackcurrant bud before developing citrus peel and tropical fruit aromas.
Palate: the attack is succulent, fresh and elegant, while the crisp mid-palate explodes with flavour, dominated by white peach, grapefruit and passion fruit. The long, expressive and very mineral finish reflects a selection of the best “valle de casablanca” terroirs.
Parellada and Garnacha Blanca, traditional white grapes, are what give Viña Sol its distinctive fresh fruitiness. Intense, with outstanding notes of flowers and ripe fruits (banana, pear, apple and peach), combined with delightful touches of citrus (mandarin zest) on a
mentholated base. It’s firm, fresh, long and elegant in the body, with a lingering finish.
