The composition and proportions vary each vintage but always include Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Carmenère, and Tempranillo grape varieties from the Colchagua region. The region has two cluster-growing locations: Apalta and Marchigüe. The perfect climate, with its strong sunshine and refreshing breeze, produces robust clusters. These are harvested entirely by hand and rigorously selected. Only the finest clusters are transported in small crates to Montes, where they undergo oak aging. Montes chooses to age this Twins Red Blend in oak barrels for at least twelve months. This red wine fully develops and acquires all the beautiful characteristics of the oak barrel.
In the glass, this red wine is a light purple with a deep red sheen. The most beautiful aromas emerge from the glass, and we noted hints of blackberry, plum, and fig, along with chocolate and light spices. On the palate, it welcomes our taste buds with a toasted character and abundant black fruit. It demands our full attention and also offers hints of sweet spices, vanilla, and oak. The finish of this Montes Twins Red Blend is very soft and richly spiced. What a delightful glass, and perfect with red meat.
