Viña La Rosa, Ossa Peumo, Peumo, Cachapoal Valley, 2008

Based in the Cachapoal Valley, La Rosa is one of the oldest family owned wineries in Chile. This is their impressive flagship wine, which is certainly flourishing at just over ten years of age. Ripe yet fresh, this exhibits generous black and red fruits, leather and a savoury black olive core. Well structured with round tannins and a mouthfilling texture, this is good now, but still has some way to go.
