Montes Description
Aromatic nose with outstanding aromas of ripe black fruits such as blackberries and figs. Aromas of creme de cassis meld with mild notes of leather and dark chocolate, which are very characteristic of Syrah from Colchagua.
The palate is well balanced with rich acidity, incredibly smooth tannins, tremendous structure, and generous volume.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Deep nose, full of tarry blackberries, ground dark peppercorn, dark spices and dried meat. Some dried Mediterranean herbs and cocoa powder, too. Dark fruit and spices seep into the medium-to full-bodied palate with chalky tannins and a long, creamy finish. Consistently a great-value syrah from Colchagua.
