Montes Alpha Carmenère is made from the Carmenère (90%) and Cabernet Sauvginon (10%) grape varieties.
In the glass this red wine sparkles is a beautiful ruby red. The bouquet delights with aromas of black pepper, ripe red berries and chocolate. The aromas of the nose are finely underlined with a hint of vanilla and hints of dark plums. This Chilean red wine is soft and harmoniously balanced on the palate. Gentle tannins and wonderfully integrated oak wood notes lead into the seductive, wonderfully long finale.
Vinification of Carmenère Montes Alpha
After the grapes have been carefully hand-picked, they are cold crushed at 9°C for a total of 7 days. This is followed by alcoholic fermentation for 10 days. This red wine is aged for 12 months in new and used French oak barriques for the wonderful wood nuances and strong colour.
This red wine is bottled unfiltered.
Food recommendation for the Montes Alpha Carmenère
We recommend this dry red wine from Chile to strong spicy game dishes with Brussels sprouts and potatoes, tender lamb from the grill or also to braised roast lamb.
