Merchant's description

One of Chile’s most lauded and sought-after reds — Purple Angel is Montes’ definitive expression of Carmenère, the grape that found its true home in the Colchagua Valley. The 2021 opens with intense, ripe blackberry perfumes alongside sweet spices and patisserie notes, leading to a palate of dark chocolate and vanilla from ageing in 100% new French oak. Made from 92% Carmenère and 8% Petit Verdot, sealed with natural cork. Velvety, complex and deeply expressive — a wine that rewards those who seek out the extraordinary. Alcohol by volume: 14.5% ABV
