Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon | Location: Chile - Central Valley - Colchagua Valley

WA 89
The 2009 Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon contains 10% Merlot and was sourced entirely from the estate's Apalta vineyards. It was aged for 12 months in French oak. It reveals a reticent nose which with coaxing displays notions of toast, spice box, violets, black currant, and blackberry. In the glass it has ample fruit, tasty flavors, and decent balance but lacks the breadth and volume for an outstanding rate. Even so, there is much to like in this wine which should be consumed over the next 4-5 years. Aurelio Montes has a well-earned reputation as one of Chile's foremost vignerons. The Montes wines offer great value at the lower end of the spectrum and set the bar for what can be achieved in Chile at the higher end.
