Product description
Montes, a renowned Chilean winery, has been producing exceptional wines since 1988. Their Alpha 'Special Cuvée' Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 exemplifies their commitment to quality and innovation.
Wine Description
The 2020 Alpha 'Special Cuvée' Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Syrah, and 5% Carmenère, sourced from Montes' extensive plantings in Marchigüe, Colchagua Valley. This wine presents a deep ruby-red color. On the nose, it offers complex aromas of ripe red and black fruits, including strawberry, prune, and blueberry, complemented by notes of tobacco, leather, and toast, thanks to 12 months of barrel aging. The palate is full-bodied with silky tannins, great body, and elegance, leading to a long, persistent finish.
Food Pairing
This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs wonderfully with grilled red meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses. Its robust character complements both casual and formal dining experiences, enhancing the overall meal.
