Montes Alpha Colchagua Valley Syrah

Big wine with a bit o' burn. (Think the roar of chewbacca) earthen oil, gritty oak, cured tobacco leaf. Tall dark and pretty.

Dark and deep ruby red. Green notes, guava, petrol and twigs on the nose. Still a little dirty and light dark fruits after an hour or two. A little metallic on the finish. Light tannins (4.5/10) and light bodied. Medium finish with slight fruit on the palate. A bit green too. Drink till 2017.

One of the most consistent wines out of Chile. The entire Alpha line is solid.

A good daily sipper from a venerable wine maker in Chile. Deep clear ruby with a medium nose of black pepper. Bright acidity with medium + tannins, and a persistent finish . Long peppery finish .

Love this wine. Would reccommend it with my eyes closed every time.

Syrah at it's best

Fruity, medium body, slightly dry, nice finish

Again... I love this wine!
