The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Escudo Rojo Reserva from Buin, Maipo, is aged for 10 months in French barrels, 20% of them new. Maroon in the glass, it offers a ripe nose of cassis, kirsch and amaretti over a layer of eucalyptus and oak. Fleshy with firm, grippy tannins; the finish is slightly dry. A one-dimensional red.
