Baron Philippe de Rothschild: curated grande marque producer — Bordeaux négociant/producer house (Mouton Cadet), globally distributed.

From our sommelier team

A Cabernet Sauvignon-led Bordeaux-style blend from Chile's Maipo Valley, built on structured, fine-grained tannins with black fruit, licorice and toasted-oak notes, reflecting the Rothschild house's Bordeaux winemaking approach applied to Chilean terroir.

Producer history

Escudo Rojo was established in 1999 by Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A. as the company's Chilean venture, pairing French Bordeaux winemaking expertise with Maipo Valley terroir. The estate is based at Buin-Maipo, about 45 km south of Santiago, with a 63-hectare home vineyard, and wines are made and bottled on-site under the supervision of a French winemaker.

Signature pairings

  • Grilled beef short ribs — A Cabernet-led blend's structured tannins and black fruit are a classic match for grilled red meat, and grilled beef is explicitly cited as a suggested pairing for this wine.
  • Lamb stew — The wine's fine-grained tannin and dark fruit stand up well to richer braised lamb preparations.
  • Hard aged cheeses — Firm, nutty aged cheeses complement the wine's toasted oak and cedar notes without overpowering it.

Baron Philippe de Rothschild's Escudo Rojo Baronesa P. is a Cabernet Sauvignon–dominant blend from Puente Alto in Chile's Maipo Valley, anchored by 81% Cabernet with supporting Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, and Carmenere. The 2021 vintage delivers a medium-full bodied wine with ripe dark fruit, cassis, and cedar on the nose, followed by black pepper spice and structured tannins on the palate. Tertiary notes of tobacco and leather add complexity. A versatile food wine suited to grilled meats, braised beef, and aged cheeses.
