Description
From the Colchagua Valley, a Chilean wine valley with the most international prestige, in which Viña Montes was a pioneer in establishing its production. The vineyard Alpata is located in one of the best terroirs in the area, which allows a mild sun exposure to the vines, which contributes to a slow, more complete maturation of the grapes.
The intense nose offers pleasing notes of ripe black and red fruits such as blackberries, figs, and dried plums. Spicy notes of nutmeg and black pepper lie over a back of tobacco and leather with a subtle balsamic aroma that envelops aromas of pastry and dark chocolate. The palate is well balanced, lush, and structured, while soft tannins lend the wine a sweet sensation that opens way to a long and very elegant finish.
