Winemaker Notes
Aromas of black fruits and spices from the Carmenere predominate on the nose and are accompanied by herbal notes from the Cabernet Franc. The palate shows a good combination of tannic structure from the Cabernet Franc and smoothness from the Carmenere to deliver a sensation of juiciness and freshness with a very elegant finish.
Blend: 60% Cabernet Franc, 40% Carmenere
Translated literally as “Black Sheep,” Oveja Negra wines intend to stand out from the flock. True representations of Chile’s Maule Valley, Oveja Negra wines sing strident of their roots, but are willing to challenge convention. The Maule Valley offers a significant diversity of soil types, allowing a wide range of grape varieties to grow. As part of the VIA Wines family, and with more than 2,500 acres of estate vineyards to work with, Winemaker Edgard Carter and his team have a constant source of inspiration for innovation and experimentation. The Reserva tier features unusual blends, such as a Sauvignon Blanc-Carmenere. Oveja Negra’s Single Vineyard wines are crafted to make each Maule Valley vineyard site shine bright, combining a fruit-driven structure with modern winemaking techniques.
