Majestic. Harmonious. A meeting of Bordeaux heritage and Chilean power.
Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva stands as one of Chile’s most distinguished blends, crafted under the vision of Baron Philippe de Rothschild — a name synonymous with excellence and refinement. Here, in the foothills of Maipo and the cool Andean-influenced vineyards, French know-how meets Chilean terroir, resulting in a wine that is rich, polished, and wonderfully expressive.
This Gran Reserva takes its name from the translation of the Rothschild family’s emblem — the “Red Shield” — a symbol of prestige, craftsmanship, and tradition. Every detail reflects that philosophy: careful vineyard selection, gentle winemaking, and meticulous blending to create a wine that balances depth with elegance.
For wine lovers in Ireland, Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva offers a luxurious yet approachable glimpse into the world of French-influenced Chilean winemaking. It’s bold without being overpowering, structured yet silky, with a sense of refinement that makes every glass feel like an occasion. This is the kind of bottle that elevates a dinner, fills a room with conversation, and lingers long in the memory.
Why we love it:
A beautifully crafted blend that captures the best of both worlds: Chilean ripeness and Bordeaux-style sophistication. Rich dark fruit, polished tannins, and subtle oak come together in a wine that feels generous yet impeccably balanced. In Ireland, it’s the perfect choice for cosy dinners, celebrations, or whenever you want a red that truly delivers.

Colour
Deep garnet with velvet-dark intensity.

Blackberries, cassis, plum compote and sweet spices, layered with cedarwood, mocha, tobacco leaf and a whisper of vanilla.
Palate
Full-bodied and structured with fine tannins. Dark forest fruit, blackcurrant and ripe cherry unfold gracefully, supported by notes of cocoa, toasted oak and a touch of graphite. The finish is long, smooth, and beautifully integrated — a hallmark of Rothschild craftsmanship.
Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva is made for the table — rich, warming, and wonderfully versatile. Pair it with:
- Slow-roasted beef or ribeye steak
- Lamb chops with rosemary and garlic
- Rich pasta dishes such as ragù or mushroom tagliatelle
- Hard cheeses like aged Manchego, Cheddar or Comté
- Chargrilled vegetables with herbs and olive oil
A superb option for dining in Ireland, especially with Sunday roasts, winter stews, or any dish that deserves a wine with both presence and finesse.
