Montes Limited Selection Cabernet Sauvignon/Carmenere 2022 750ml
TASTING NOTES
As is typical for these varieties, the colour is a deep carmine-red. The aromas are of ripe fruit, including strawberry, cherry, blackberry, and blueberry. There are sweet notes, reminiscent of pastries, with candied fruit and berry syrup. The time spent ageing in barrels added clear notes of vanilla and dulce de leche, as well has hints of dark chocolate and toasted nuts. The palate is balanced, with silky tannins and nice body. The same aromas are repeated in the flavours on the palate, and lead to a very long finish.
Food pairing: Highly recommended with stir-fried beef, pork chops, spaghetti bolognese, lamb chops and mushroom risotto.
