"Located in the heart of the Curico Valley, the Montes Estates are one of the richest winemaking areas in Chile. Irrigated by the Andes, the pre-phylloxera vineyards create the ultimate expression of each grape. We carefully select the best grapes and make only limited quantities of each wine. We use French oak only, and taste barrel samples frequently so that each wine is bottled at the optimal moment." - Winery Notes

Montes Alpha Syrah 2009 Tasting Notes

Of intense ruby red color, it has enchanting floral aromas accompanied by tobacco and leathery notes. On the mouth, it's powerful and full-bodied to the palate, with soft and mature tannins and a very long and elegant finish.
