2010 Colchagua Valley Malbec

Montes Alpha Alpha is a striking Malbec from the renowned Colchagua Valley, celebrated for its rich terroir and ideal climate for grape growing. This full-bodied red wine boasts a deep, opaque hue that draws you in, while its high acidity keeps the palate refreshed and engaged. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering layers of luscious dark fruits like blackcurrant and plum, intertwined with delightful notes of chocolate and vanilla from oak aging. Tannins present a notable firmness that adds structure and depth, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes. This 2010 vintage exemplifies the finesse and craftsmanship of Montes, delivering a wine that is both robust and elegant, suitable for aging or immediate enjoyment.

Colchagua Valley

Dubbed "Chile's red wine paradise" by Vogue magazine, Colchagua Valley is undoubtedly one of South America's finest wine regions. Indeed, many of Chile's best reds come from this dry, ocean breeze-cooled section of the Central Valley. Expect inky-dark reds made from Carménère, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Merlot. These wines burst with flavors of ripe berries and earthy tobacco, with a nice acidic balance thanks to the valley's cool nights. Don't underestimate the white wines, either, as Colchuaga's breezy coast is home to some memorable Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.
