Purple Angel 2013

- 95 points -

Purple Angel is the best wine from Montes in my view. Combining equal amounts of
Carmenère from Marchihue and Apalta with 8% Petit Verdot (also from Apalta), this is the best release I’ve tasted. Smooth, silky tannins, ripe, chocolate and lead pencil notes, wellintegrated new oak and a well balanced finish.
