Escudo Rojo Carménère Gran Reserva

The Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva Carmenère comes from the Colchagua Valley in central Chile, about 200 kilometers south of Santiago. The vineyards benefit from a Mediterranean climate that provides excellent conditions for the Carmenère grape variety. The wine combines fruity aromas with delicate spicy notes and a pleasant freshness, showcasing the typical character of Chilean Carmenère wines.

In the glass, the Carmenère Gran Reserva displays a beautiful violet color with purple highlights. On the nose, there are aromas of blueberries, plums, pomegranate, and wild berries, complemented by subtle hints of violets. Spicy notes of pepper and clove, along with a touch of tobacco and vanilla, round out the bouquet.

On the palate, the Escudo Rojo Carmenère is fruity, smooth, and pleasantly full-bodied. Its refined acidity provides freshness and balance, while the soft tannins give the wine a lovely, velvety texture. Dark fruit flavors and subtle spicy notes accompany the wine all the way through the finish.

80% of the wine is aged for ten months in French oak barrels, using a combination of new barrels and those that are one to two years old. This aging process imparts additional spice and subtle notes of vanilla and tobacco to the wine without overshadowing the fruit.

The Escudo Rojo Gran Reserva Carmenère pairs well with hearty meat dishes, grilled meats, BBQ, and spicy foods. It’s also a good choice with aged cheeses. This wine is best enjoyed at a serving temperature of 16–18 °C. An easy-drinking, fruity, and spicy red wine from Chile that’s perfect for both dining and a cozy evening.

Baron Philippe de Rothschild

Grenzenlos gut: die chilenischen Weine von Baron Philippe de Rothschild! Château Mouton-Rothschild in Pauillac bei Bordeaux ist das Lebenswerk des Barons Philippe de Rothschild, der es am 22. Oktober 1922 als junger Mann überschrieben bekam und es zu einem der berühmtesten Weingüter der Welt machte.

Rothschild ist in der Weinwelt ein Synonym für herausragende Qualität. Die Nachfahren von Philippe de Rothschild setzten 1997 ihre Pläne in die Tat um, ihre Weinbau-Expertise und das unverwechselbare Terroir Chiles zusammenzubringen. Geprägt von mehr als 4000 Kilometer Pazifik-Küste, den Küstengebirgen und den Anden bietet das südamerikanische Land einzigartige Anbaubedingungen.

In den chilenischen Spitzenanbaugebieten Valle de Maipo, Valle de Rapel sowie dem näher zur Küste gelegenen Valle de Casablanca reifen die Trauben für die Linie Escudo Rojo heran, was übrigens die spanische Übersetzung von „Rothschild" oder „rotes Schild" ist, dem ursprünglichen Wappen der Familie. 1997 ging Baroness Philippine de Rothschild zudem eine Partnerschaft mit dem chilenischen Spitzenweingut Concha y Toro ein.

De Gras Reserva Carménère
Der De Gras Reserva Carménère stammt aus der Region Valle Central in Chile. Der Wein besteht zu einem großen Teil aus der Rebsorte Carmenere und einem kleinen Teil Merlot. Ausgebaut wurde er 5 Monate in französischen und amerikanischen Eichenfässern in einem 80/20 Verhältnis. Dabei waren ein Viertel der Fässer neu und der Rest im zweiten Gebrauch.Im Glas ist der trockene Rotwein purpurrot. Aromen reifer, schwarzer Früchte mit Gewürzen, Schokolade, Vanille und einer feinen Note von Toast ergeben ein wunderbar elegantes und komplexes Bouquet. Dieser Rotwein hat reife und weiche Tannine. Es ergibt sich eine außerordentliche Struktur und Frische.Der vegane Wein vom Weingut Montgras passt sehr gut zu süß-sauren Gerichten, zu Eintöpfen, Pasteten, Huhn und einige öligen Fischgerichten, besonders wenn sie ein wenig Pfeffer enthalten. Genießen Sie den Carmenere bei einer empfohlenen Trinktemperatur von 16-18 °C.
