Variety Syrah-Cabernet Sauvignon
Region Maule Valley
Country Chile
Year 2010
Price $6.95 

Critic's Review Oveja Negra Reserva Rose is bright and cherry-red in color and has an attractive nose with aromas of raspberries and strawberries as well as plum and a bit of green apple. Crisp and juicy on the palate with a slight sweetness that accompanies the red fruit flavors. Pleasing natural acidity with medium- high intensity, nice persistence, and a fresh finish.

My Thoughts This Rose has a lush, translucent red color. It is vibrant and reflective. The nose is heavy with red fruit - raspberries, cherries and strawberries dominant the nose with a crisp apple/lemon scent. It is sweet on the palate and heavy with red fruit. It finishes clean, fresh.

This wine was not paired with any food.
