Description

Montes Alpha Syrah 2022 (Chile)The wine presents a deep red colour, with violet hues. The tears fall very slowly down the glass. The aromas are principally of ripe black and blue berries, together with candied fruit and dairy notes. Thanks to the time spent ageing in French barrels, there are also balanced notes of toast, tobacco, nougat, and sweet spice. The mouthfeel is very balanced, with full body and density, very silky tannins, and lingering flavours and vibrancy. The

The wine presents a deep red colour, with violet hues. The tears fall very slowly down the glass. The aromas are principally of ripe black and blue berries, together with candied fruit and dairy notes. Thanks to the time spent ageing in French barrels, there are also balanced notes of toast, tobacco, nougat, and sweet spice. The mouthfeel is very balanced, with full body and density, very silky tannins, and lingering flavours and vibrancy.

The vineyards that give rise to our Montes Alpha Syrah are located in two distinct zones of the Colchagua Valley—Apalta and Marchigüe. The origin of the soils of the two areas is granite at differing stages of decomposition,with highly variable depths and amounts of clay and organic matter. Apalta is very heterogeneous, with some sectors strongly influenced by the proximity of the river and others by alluvium and eroded of material from high above in the mountains. The soils tend to be deep on the plain and thinner in the foothills and upper areas. The Syrah vineyards are intentionally planted in very steep sites (45º). Marchigüe is flatter, with lower hills and gentler slopes. Its soils are shallow—in some places no more than 60 cm deep—with medium clay content and a high capacity for water retention. The vineyards are located on moderate slopes with western exposure. This vineyard also produces Viognier, which makes up 3% of the blend and is vinified together with the Syrah. Leaves are pulled from around the Syrah bunches after veraison, to encourage good ventilation.

This was a rather benign season for the production of our wines, despite the ongoing deficit of water that has now become the norm for us. Winter saw an absence of frost in our vineyards, and spring brought us enough precipitation to ensure the health of our vines until harvest. Bud break and fruit set were normal, although the final bunches obtained at harvest had fewer grapes and were a little lighter than the previous season’s, across almost all our varieties. Summer was free of rain, and there were a few days with high temperatures during veraison. For Syrah at our Apalta and Marchigue estates, the beginning of harvest was delayed by at least 10 days, caused by cooler nights at the end of March; these also balanced grape metabolism, which enhances the aromatic potential of the grapes.

The grapes were harvested into 300-kg containers and selected by hand upon arrival at the cellar, before destemming. Grapes of Alpha quality were macerated in the fermentation tank for 5 days, after which selected yeasts were added for a perfectly controlled fermentation; this lasted for 7–10 days, until all the sugar was converted into alcohol. The wine was racked into stainless steel and concrete tanks, maintaining the optimal temperature for malolactic fermentation, which can occur very quickly or take up to 20 days. Once this second fermentation finished, the wine was racked into French oak barrels where it remained for 12 months. A proportion of the wine remained in concrete tanks, before it was blended into the final wine that would be bottled.

Food Pairing: Highly recommended with red meats, Mongolian beef, spaghetti with Bolognese sauce, and lambchops with Cabernet and mushroom sauce.

Love these socks!
Size: 6-10, Color: White
Comfortable, no show, and most importantly The Do No Slip!!!! I keep coming back to add to my supply because they have become the only sock I wear. I’ve been using them for a couple years now and they hold to great to washing, bleaching and the dryer. Highly recommended.

The only socks I will buy
Size: 6-10, Color: Halo Gray/Assorted
These are hands down my favorite socks to wear with tennis shoes. Bought my original 6 pack in the store, liked them so much I went buy more and they were gone. These don't slip on your heel like most socks do. Come up high enough on the top of your foot to protect from tongue rubbing (I giggled when I wrote that) and they come in fun colors. Love they are ultra no show and provide padding but people can't see them with shoes on. Five stars!

Amazing socks but false advertising. They changed them.
Size: Large, Color: Black (6-pairs)
Okay well I have 4 stars because these are the best socks ever, infact, I threw out all my other socks and switched to just these. No show and they never slip. THE PROBLEM NOW, all the pairs I ordered before had a white symbol, and every time I buy more they have the grey and they are not as low show as my others… I wanted to simplify life and have all the same kind, no matching of colors or slightly different shape, but 4 times now I’ve ordered white symbol and gotten thicker longer ones with gray symbols. I’m considering switching all of my socks to the gray…. But the white symbol ones are way better, they don’t show with hey dudes on and gray symbol ones do now. I’m at a loss. Can someone tell me where to buy 100 pairs of white symbol so I never need to buy another sock again in my life?
