JS James Suckling: 94 Points
An excellent cabernet sauvignon that shows typical dark olives, paprika, tobacco leaves, ash and some blackcurrants. Very tight and fine-grained on the palate, with dusty tannins and a long, layered finish. Powerful and polished.

Sourced from Apalta and Marchigüe in the Colchagua Valley, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Montes Alpha also includes 10% Merlot. Aged for up to 12 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new, this garnet wine reveals dark fruit aromas of blackberry and plum alongside notes of tomato leaf and oak. Indulgent and rich, with a subtly concentrated mouthfeel, it lingers with fine, reactive tannins. This is the ABC of Montes Alpha, crafted in a pristine year.
WS The Wine Spectator: 90 Points
This fresh, pure red's aromas of freesia and thyme lead to a polished core of cherry and strawberry that gains in richness and intensity as it lingers onto the finish, picking up stony hints around fine tannins, with a late echo of coffee bean.
