Escudo Rojo, Central Valley (Chile) 2008

Jan 27, 2010

By Paul Lukacs

 An excellent Bordeaux-blend from Chile, this wine lacks the herbal edge and firm structure that so distinguishes many top Chilean reds.  It makes up for any deficit, though, with rich, dark fruit flavor, and a smooth, satisfying finish.
