WTN: Montes Classic Series Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Colchagua Valley

Dark cherry red in the glass.

Spicy on the nose.

Medium weight, smoky, juicy cherry, lip smacking, spicy, good acidity, nice mouthfeel, peppery, roasted, with an earthy-bitter bite and some heat toward the end.

Earthy-bitter streak and alcohol burn on the finish.

The wine started out pretty good, but then the alcohol burn and bitter streak took over. Not nice.

Purchased on sale at $10.40 (Canadian).
