Oveja Negra Single Vineyard Carignan

Chile - Maule Valley Oveja Negra Single Vineyard Carignan


Edgard's comment

“This Single Vineyard Carignan has an outstanding deep purple colour with a garnet-red rim. It has a tremendous aromatic complexity featuring red fruit such as cherries and raspberries with subtle floral notes of violet and rose petals along with a light touch of spice. These aromas meld elegantly with notes of chocolate and coffee from its barrel ageing. The palate presents tremendous personality that echoes the fruit and oak from the nose with high intensity and firm, ripe tannins. The bright fruit flavours lead to spicy notes with a light touch of oak and end with a pleasingly persistent finish.”

" This wonderful wine comes from our 40–year-old vines from Plot N°8 in our old dry farmed vineyards in the interior of the Maule Valley. This region is known for its Mediterranean climate with well-defined seasons throughout the year."
