The2022 Montes Alpha Pinot Noir is a vibrant, cool-climate Chilean red from the Aconcagua Costa region. It offers ripe strawberry and cherry aromas, complemented by subtle vanilla and oak notes. On the palate, it is juicy and well-structured, featuring soft, velvety tannins and a smooth finish.

  • Palate: Juicy and approachable. It features fleshy red fruit, balanced acidity, and well-integrated oak. The tannins are fine-grained, soft, and rounded, leading to a smooth, lingering, and flavorful finish.

Food Pairings:

  • Meats: Light poultry, roasted duck, and veal chops.
  • Seafood: Grilled salmon or seared tuna.
  • Vegetarian: Mushroom risotto, pasta with pesto, creamy soups, or creamy cheeses like Camembert.

"Roses, moss, red berries and cherries. Juicy and fruity on the palate, with good fleshy fruit and soft tannins. Solid, flavorful finish. Always a consistent pinot from Aconcagua. Most of the fruit come from Casablanca."
