Montes Alpha Carmenère 2018 - Montes

Montes Alpha Carmenère is made from the Carmenère (90%) and Cabernet Sauvginon (10%) grape varieties.

In the glass this red wine sparkles is a beautiful ruby red. The bouquet delights with aromas of black pepper, ripe red berries and chocolate. The aromas of the nose are finely underlined with a hint of vanilla and hints of dark plums. This Chilean red wine is soft and harmoniously balanced on the palate. Gentle tannins and wonderfully integrated oak wood notes lead into the seductive, wonderfully long finale.
