MONTES Cabernet Sauvignon 'Alpha' 2012

The 2012 Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Clones 46C, 169 sourced from the Marchigüe and Apalta estates in the Colchagua Valley. It displays a dark, inky color and as it slowly opens, aromas of blackberries and dark currants along with loam, spices and and hints of mocha all begin to take shape in the glass. This full-bodied Cabernet is well-structured and polished with dark fruits and spice flavors lingering on the finish. (Best 2016-2021) - January, 2016 (JD)
