Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon - 2011 (750ml) 1933 This Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir(2011 vintage) "A ruby red, intense colored wine. On the nose its an elegant, complex and intense wine with violets and red fruits evocations of blackberry, chocolate, black pepper and cigar box scents while its affinity with oak lends vanilla, butterscotch and coffee notes. A wine in perfect balance showing real finesse and class, firm and round tannins, great structure, medium body and a long and persistent finish." Montes
