Montes Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 1996

Valle del Curicó, Region del Valle Central, ChileEarthy, green bean, cassis, peppery, berry jam aromas and flavours. Soft, round and forward has good richness with a coffee, dusty, cherry finish. Ready to drink now with food but it wouldn't hurt to age this another year or two. This wine has jumped $1.50 since the last vintage making it good but not great value.Tasted: 01 March 1999Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
