A magnum-format Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon from the Colchagua Valley, bottled at 14.5% ABV.
The wine blends 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Merlot and matures for 12 months in French oak barrels. Viña Montes was founded in 1988, and the Alpha range was its first premium label, sourcing fruit from the Apalta sub-region. Gregorian monastic chants are played continuously in the barrel room during ageing.
The nose opens with blackcurrant, cassis, ripe figs, blackberry, tobacco, dark chocolate, spicy black pepper and vanilla. The palate is full-bodied and fruit-forward, with ripe plum, blueberry, strawberry, leather, toast and crème de cassis, supported by ripe, polished tannins. The finish is long and persistent, with tobacco, dark chocolate and a subtle minty freshness.
