Product Notes

Vina Montes Alpha M Apalta Vineyard wine is a Chilean premium delight famed for its nuanced flavours and exceptional quality. This robust, full-bodied red blend offers a harmonious fusion of blackberry, plum, and cherry notes, beautifully layered with hints of mocha and caramel from oak ageing. The palate multiplies these complexities, interwoven with velvety tannins and a long, satisfying finish. Its deep ruby colour and balanced acidity elevate the tasting experience, making it a favourite among wine connoisseurs. This wine carries the charm of the Apalta vineyard's distinct terroir, a testament to the esteemed Montes winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes

This wine is deep ruby-red in colour. The complex nose shows notes of ripe red and black fruits, cherry syrup, figs, and blackberry. Its time in French oak barrels is reflected in the toasted notes, sweet spices, tobacco, and hint of wet earth; there's also some dairy-like toffee and caramel. On the palate, the wine is balanced, with extremely silky tannins, a well-harmonized acidity and a long, fruit-forward, and vibrant finish.
