Baron Philippe de Rothschild, Escudo Rojo, Grand Reserve, 2020, Chile

Made with Cabernet Sauvignon,  Carmenère, Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot this red wine from the Maipo Valley has lots going on. Dry and rich it’s boldness would make this best with red meat. That said there are plenty of flavours of blackcurrent with cherry and hints of raspberry, with a little chocolate and vanilla in the background. The oak is a little heavy for me but that’s more personal.

At £15 a bottle it’s a bit pricy but worth a try.
