2020 Purple Angel Carmenère, Montes, Colchagua Valley

2020 Purple Angel Carmenère, Montes, Colchagua Valley

One of the finest Carmenère wines we know, from a top Chilean producer. It's 92% Carmenère with 8% Petit Verdot adding a spicy dimension. Aurelio Sr, who heads up Montes, referred to the blend as “The Petit Verdot is the skeleton, while the Carmenère is flesh.” It's aged in 80% new oak for 18 months which adds layers of creamy complexity, around a core of plush, pastille black fruit. If you're going to add one Carmenère to your cellar, make it this South American icon.
