Eric's Last Drop--Montes Alpha Series Syrah 2020
Eric's Last Drop--Montes Alpha Series Syrah 2020
WINE IS AVAILABLE FOR PICK UP ONLY.
A Syrah from the Colchagua Valley and Rapel Valley, Chile
Montes was the first winery to plant Syrah in Chile and this wine is sourced from steep blocks of two estate vineyards. These two unique vineyards feature granite-rich soils in differing degrees of decomposition yet both have considerable variation in the clay content, depth, and organic matter from the influence of erosion and deposits from local rivers over time.
Of course this Syrah has a deep red-violet color and a nose is full of Syrah character. This includes strong notes of ripe blackberry and blueberry. On the palate, strawberry and cherry are underscored by licorice notes with a subtle hint of leather. The palate is balanced and very smooth, with good body and a very appealing elegance.
What to serve it with??? I highly recommended with duck breast, grilled lamb or pork chops, pasta with pesto, lamb masala, or chicken with mushroom sauce.
We only have 24 bottles available and while it is normally $20+, we are kicking off our “Last Drop” series and selling it at $14.69/btl. Grab some while you can!!
