Description
The typical Argentinian grape Malbec has crossed the border to Chile. The result of this Montes Alpha Malbec is impressive. Intense ruby red in colour. The aroma is complex with red fruit, violets, vanilla and some oak. Accompanied by some spiciness from black and red peppers. The taste is robust, powerful, but at the same time elegant. A special wine with tension and balance.
Malbec goes perfectly with, how could it be otherwise, typical South American meat dishes. Grilling, roasting, smoking. Feel free to serve a barbecue sauce with it. Pork, chicken, beef. Spiced and peppery, this wine can handle it all. It is also delicious on a long summer evening or by a crackling fire.
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will also receive a nice discount. We are almost next to the Rijksweg with plenty of parking. Click here for address.

In 1987 was het Aurelio Montes en 3 partners die het initiatief namen om een wijnbedrijf op te starten met als doel de volledige potentie van Chili als wijnland te benutten en de hoogst mogelijke kwaliteit wijn te produceren. Dat is inmiddels aardig gelukt, Montes is een van de absolute topproducenten in Chili en Aurelio werd recent nog gekozen tot meest invloedrijke wijnman van het land. Montes beschikt over vijf wijngaarden. Drie ervan bevinden zich in Curico Valley en twee in Colchagua Valley, samen beslaan zij een oppervlakte van 600 ha. In 2004 is er in Alpalta een totaal nieuwe winery gebouwd die volgens de Chinese Fengh Shui filosofie is opgezet. Inmiddels heeft ook Aurelio jr. zijn sporen als wijnmaker verdiend en samen met zijn vader vormt hij een hecht en succesvol team.
