BRILLIANT: Montes Wines 2019 Wings (Chile)

Montes makes some amazing wines, this one was new to me, 

but it still delivered everything I expect from this winery in Chile

A nod to Paul McCartney or Red Bull, either way, this wine flew high to represent another really good offering from Montes. Smoky-black cherry and hints of coffee - the fruit just sores and sings, and it's stays a long time on the palate. Beauty.

SYRAH ON STEROIDS - Montes Wines 2020 Folly (Chile)

Folly is Montes' Ultra Premium Syrah and in 2020 it goes next level

This 100% Syrah has a meatiness about it; layered with mocha, blackberry, cassis, and black cherry with smoky, spicy and peppery nuances backing it all up. 

AMAZING bottle of Montes 2020 Alpha M (Chile)

One of the most consistent wineries in terms of quality Chilean wines does it again

 WRITTEN REVIEW

An absolute ripper ... Tasty and full of flavoured ... Layered and lovely with all its dark fruit. Drink now or hold. This tickles and tingles the tastebuds, it’s everything I'd want in a Chilean wine.  (**** ½)

 

Montes Alpha 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon (Chilean Wine)

--- The Written Review ---

A real beauty with its mint and smoke on the nose; on the palate there’s a real depth with lots of lush dark fruit, this one hits all the right notes: black cherry, blackberry, vanilla and smoke - I reiterate, it’s a beauty.  (****+)
