Montes Cherub Rose 2019

Happy wine Wednesday, you’re invited to cool down this evening with Montes’ Cherub Rosé 2019. This rose is a Syrah, Grenache blend and hardier than your typical rose. Grown in El Arcangel de Marchigüe estate vineyards of Chile, this wine is perfect for the blackened shrimp you grilled at home or (like me) ordered from your favorite local spot.

ORIGIN

Colchagua Valley, Chile

Grapes

Syrah

Tasting Notes

Brilliant pale coral in color. The nose is intense and expressive with aromas of fresh raspberries and tart cherries, along with hints of pineapple and apricot. The palate is balanced and crisp with natural acidity and a medium finish.

Food Match

Pork, pasta, cheeses, sushi, salads and white meat.
