Oveja Negra Syrah-Cab Rose Reserva


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

Winery Review: Oveja Negra Reserva Rose is bright 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 Review: On the nose I could smell Granny smith apples and some oranges and lemons. I was thinking this wine would be tart and acidic by the smell. When I tasted it I got some of the sweetness from the berries on my palate and kind of floral. The wine was fully body and I liked this wine for the most part, although it was a bit tart for me.
