Montes Alpha Syrah 2009

Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileMinty, bay, peppery, savoury, tobacco, black cherry, coffee, liquorice, gamey, leather aromas with a touch of blueberry. Rich, full, round but somewhat astringent and chunky palate. Coffee, blueberry jam, blackberry, vanilla, cedar, tobacco, liquorice, peppery, minty, dried herb flavours. Youthful and a bit rustic but good fruit concentration. Needs a few years to round out or decant now and serve with a rich piece of meat.Tasted: 08 May 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
