The 2017 vintage has a beautiful, deep, ruby-red colour. On the nose the notes are of ripe red fruit, such as cherry, strawberry, and plum. With 18 months in French oak barrels, the wine shows good complexity, with notes of tobacco, sweet spice, and very well balanced toast in the background. On the palate the aroma profile reappears, with the wine showing balance and an enveloping character, medium body and a long finish, full of creamy sensations and persistent fruit character.

Aromas of cassis, fresh tomato, tobacco, herbs, eucalyptus and spice are Chilean all the way, while this Cabernet-led blend feels solid but a little light in the midpalate. Savory plum, berry and tomato-sauce flavors finish dry and smooth, with manageable tannins. Drink through 2027.

From Apalta, Colchagua, Montes Alpha is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Merlot and Petit Verdot. Time in barrel enhances the flavors of black currant, cherry and mint. A complex wine held together by firm, polished tannins that compress it like a well-tailored corset, so that the fruit reverberates in the mouth.
