Montes Alpha M "La Finca Estate" 2009

Apalta Valley, Santa Cruz, Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileLove the freshness and styling of this mix of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot. Lots of refined red berry fruits with a savoury, cedar and black olive under current. Leaner with more finesse and less overwhelming bay leaf character. Lots of new French oak but it is well-integrated after two years in bottle. Steaks anyone.Tasted: 15 January 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
