Natalie's Score: 90/100

Escudo Reserva 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is excellent value under $18. Produced from sustainably-grown grapes, the wine is fresh on the nose with bright blackberry, dark plum, dark cherry and cedar spice silky on the palate and with great acidity for food. Pour with burgers and ribs.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: grilled sirloin steak, slow-braised blade roast in wine sauce, wild mushroom and leek risotto.

Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Baron Philippe de Rothschild's Escudo Rojo Reserva is an impressive value-priced Cabernet Sauvignon from this storied Chilean winery. Dark plum, blackberry, brandied cherries, baking spices, pepper, and menthol on the hose and palate. Medium-full bodied, it's dry with dark fruits and savoury flavours persisting on the refreshing finish. Enjoy with braised dishes, BBQ fare, or aged cheddar. Tasted October 2021. 89 points.
