A very good wine from Chile. The nose is so consistent and consetrated. Aromas of peppers, tomato leaves, plums, berries and light herbs. The palate is following the nose with an amazing balance of the veggie and the fruity parts. Round and plenty tannins with a medium + acidity. Long veggie finish a bit harsh. It needs some time but still is a good choise for now. Any dish combining vegatables and braised beef is a must pair!

This wine has been brooding in my cellar for about 4 years and I am not a believer in antipodal wine longevity. Perhaps I should change that opinion for this sanguineous wine is holding strong at age 7 years with notes of cassis on the nose followed by semi-sweet blackberry and bitter almond on the palate. Very mouth filling medicinal and warm, the wine is very well crafted and to be recommended. 90 points. May be held another 5 years at least.

WA 94pts. - According to the Wine Advocate: The 2007 Purple Angel is a blend of Carmenere and Petit Verdot that might be the only competition for Terrunyo s Carmin de Peumo for top Carmenere-based wine in Chile. Purple/black in color, it displays a splendid nose of exotic spices, herbs, lavender, incense, blueberry, and blackberry. Dense, chewy, and opulent on the palate, this is a rich, already complex offering that is meant strictly for pleasure-seekers. Enjoy it from 2013-2022.

Purple Angel 2006 - Montes: Purple Angel 2006 - Rotwein von MontesDer Montes Purple Angel ist ein Ausnahme-Wein, der streng limitiert ist und von dem wir daher auch nur eine Flasche pro Kunden abgeben können. Aufgrund der idealen Wachstumsbedingungen zeigt sich dieser Wein in einem tiefen Purpurrot. Auch durch die unterschiedlichen Lagen und Rebsorten kann er mit einem komplexen Bukett aus eleganten dunklen Fruchtnoten von Pflaumen und Blaubeeren des Apalta-Carmenère aufwarten. Zusätzlich erleben wir die lebhafte Würze eines Carmenère aus Marchigüe und die wildfruchtigen Brombeeraromen des Petit Verdot. Den Gaumen verwöhnt er mit seiner Vollmundigkeit, Intensität, seinem Körperreichtum und mit reichlich reifem Tannin, das dem Wein seine Festigkeit und Struktur verleiht. Trinken Sie ihn allein zum Entspannen oder zu kräftigen Wildgerichten, saftig geschmorter Lammkeule mit vielen Kräutern, Rinderbraten oder gegrilltem Fleisch mit würzigen Saucen.Weingut: MontesLand: ChileRegion: Colchagua ValleyRebsorten: 92% Carmenère, 8% Petit VerdotAlkoholgehalt: 14,5 Vol. %Säuregehalt: 3,5 g/lRestsüße: 2,5 g/lInhalt: 0,75 lEmpfohlene Serviertemperatur: 16 - 18°CFassreife: in Barriques gereift (18 Monate)Auszeichnungen des Montes Purple Angel 2006:96 Parker Punkte91 Punkte- The Wine Spectator Mai 2009 Rotwein > Chile > Colchagua Valley

A very ambitious style, with dark, exotic toast leading the way for fig sauce, currant paste and Turkish coffee flavors that manage to stay pure and driven. The long, very polished finish let a mineral note echo. Carmenère and Petit Verdot. Drink now... Wine Spectator. A Carmenere wine from Rapel Valley in Chile. 2006 Montes Purple Angel 750ml
