Folly Syrah 2020 (Montes)

Cellar up to 15 years. It is recommended to decant an hour before serving. Since 1988, with the founding of Vina Montes and the release of the first Montes Alpha wine, this estate has become one of the most successful and respected wineries in Chile and South America. Aurelio Montes continues to lead the business with the same passion of the first day and with the total involvement of his three partners. Many years later, the Montes wines still inspire the whole world with their extraordinary and lasting quality. The Syrah grapes come from plots on granite slopes in the Apalta area, in the Colchagua Valley. These slopes, with very thin soils, give extremely concentrated grapes. Montes Folly Syrah is a bold and opulent wine. Its ruby red color shows intense reflections. The nose is very elegant, with notes of ripe blueberries and cassis, as well as chocolate aromas and subtle toasted notes. On the palate it is robust and balanced, with soft tannins and spicy flavors. It is warm and ample with a long and elegant finish. Hold it in the cellar for a few years or enjoy its corpulent personality now with Beef Bourguignon, rack of lamb with parsley butter, veal shank with mushrooms, or caramelized pork chop.
