The Story

Our Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon is made with selected grapes from our Colchagua Valley vineyards grown under our “Dry Farming” philosophy. Under this system we leave nature to do the job of irrigation through rain. We don’t irrigate unless nature does not provide us with the enough minimum rain that we have determined our vines need in which case we irrigate to compensate the difference. Dry Farming increases the final quality of the wines...

Written Notes

Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is purple, and looking dark and deep. On the nose it is open, ripe and generous. The taste is focused, ripe, toasty, and average in acidity, with concentrated and well-structured structure. On the palate it is layered and has floral, cassis, chocolate, mint and spice flavours. The finish is long, lingering, spicy and vibrant. This wine is fine. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years and decant at least over 4h before tasting.
