Vino Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon

Vino Cabernet Sauvignon, Alpha,  Viña Montes, Colchagua Valley,

Tasting note:

Made with grapes from the famous Colchagua Valley and one of the most widely known Chilean wines. Deep ruby-red in color and very fruity, ripe, and intense on the nose with a predominance of red fruit notes such as strawberries and ripe cherries. Black currants and candied fruit also appear on the palate, where the very well-integrated oak contributes notes of toast, toffee, fresh-ground coffee, tobacco, and vanilla. The palate is well balanced with finely tuned rounded tannins that lend the wine a certain creaminess and very pleasing volume. The aromatic sensation increases with greater emphasis on the lactic aromas and fruitiness. Long, pleasing finish.
