The result here is a supple and fruity, immediately engaging wine, enjoyable now, offering lots of pleasure, with plenty of ripe cherry and raspberry fruit. I'd still wish for yet a touch less vanilla-chocolate oak flavour, but the wine is certainly heading in the right direction. Best now-2026.”\n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 89, Star Value Rating, John Sazbo, WineAlign, February 2023\n“Monte's 2021 pinot is perhaps the best yet in my opinion, showing more restrained oak influence, fresher, more balanced fruit, and more gentle extraction than many previous bottlings on the riper and more oaky spectrum.

Features flavours of raspberry jam and bramble, with more sweetly ripened fruit than savoury elements. Nicely balanced with delicate spice and herbal notes such as black tea and laurel. This pinot's pleasant acidity is derived from coastal influence and cool mornings.”\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSIZE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n750 ml\n\u003ch2\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/h2\u003e\nChile\n\u003ch2\u003eREGION\u003c\/h2\u003e\nAconcagua Coast\n\u003ch2\u003eVARIETALS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n100% Pinot Noir\n\u003ch2\u003eALCOHOL\u003c\/h2\u003e\n14.0%\n","published_at":"2023-03-01T10:40:12-05:00","created_at":"2023-03-01T10:40:12-05:00","vendor":"Montes","type":"Wine","tags":["BottlePrice:20.95","BottlePriceMap:750:20.95","CaseSize:6","CaseSizeMap:750:6","Category:LCBO","Category:Red Wine","Country:Chile","LCBOLink:montes-alpha-pinot-noir-2016-143214","override-soh-skip","rating: 89 PTS (WA)","Region:Aconcagua Coast","Size:750ml","Type:Red","Type:Wines","Varietal:Pinot Noir","Vintage:2021"],"price":12570,"price_min":12570,"price_max":12570,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43840610730239,"title":"750 ml","option1":"750 ml","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"143214","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"LCBO - Montes Alpha Pinot Noir 2021 - 750 ml","public_title":"750 ml","options":["750 ml"],"price":12570,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Montes_Alpha_Pinot_Noir_PNG.png?v=1677685214"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Montes_Alpha_Pinot_Noir_PNG.png?v=1677685214","options":["Size"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":31869019259135,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":3024,"width":3024,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Montes_Alpha_Pinot_Noir_PNG.png?v=1677685214"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":3024,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Montes_Alpha_Pinot_Noir_PNG.png?v=1677685214","width":3024}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/h2\u003e\nThe nose is very aromatic with aromas of red fruits recalling strawberries and tart cherries in liqueur.
