2008 Montes Alpha Series Carmenere 750ml
Montes Alpha has become, in the past fifteen years, a benchmark for other Chilean wineries to follow, always in search for Chile's full potential.
ROBERT PARKER RATING: 91
ROBERT PARKER REVIEW: The 2008 Alpha Carmenere is a glass-coating opaque purple with a nose of damp earth, mineral, sage, thyme, tobacco, and blueberry. Dense and full-bodied on the palate, it reveals layers of ripe fruit, lots of spice, and enough structure to evolve for 1-2 years. It will deliver prime drinking from 2012 to 2020.
