A serious wine, sensual, suitable for the gentleman’s club. Deep oak, well mature grape, rich and smooth, like drinking brandy. It’s a true classic that you will want to take your time savouring. Once you have drank Montes Alpha "M" 2005 you may well choose to adopt this wine as your own single personal wine. It’s a solo wine, ideal company when considering those big decisions…It’s a Rolls Royce!Extra Notes With it's spectacular wooden box for 6 bottles, this wine is also considered the favourite gift for someone special or for yourself! The slopes of Apalta in Colchagua (in the Central Valley) have a half-moon shape, with a unique microclimate, defined by the mountains and Tinguiririca River. The best slopes in this valley, with a 45° average inclination and over 49° in the upper slopes, are found on our estate where we grow the grapes for our MONTES ALPHA "M”. Having a southwest exposure allows us to have exactly the right level of hours of sunlight (measured in degree days). The ocean breeze (only 80 kms/50 miles away) provides a cooling effect, ideal for slow maduration of the grapes. The warm days but cool winds at night, with their lowering temperatures, give a microclimate particularly suited for growing red grape. .
