Escudo Rojo is the Spanish translation of the German 'Rote Schild', meaning 'red shield'—the historic emblem of the Rothschild family. Launched in Chile by Baron Philippe de Rothschild, this range represents the family's encounter with the exceptional terroirs of the Central Valley. The Escudo Rojo Syrah is a testament to this fusion of French winemaking expertise and Chilean soil. Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in the Central Valley, where warm sunny days are tempered by cool evening breezes from the Andes, the grapes develop intense concentration and balanced acidity. The wine is traditionally vinified and aged partially in French oak barrels to impart structure, elegance, and refined notes of spice and toasted oak to the rich black fruit core.
