“A ripe and brooding syrah, showing good depth of blackberries, ripe dark cherries and violets, together with a refined, spicy edge and some savory, balsamic character. Concentrated and rich, but still well-drinkable. Full-bodied palate, saturated with dusty tannins that seamlessly knit the palate, rendering a broad but cohesive mouth-feel. Lots of hedonistic pleasures here, but not over the top.”
97 Points, James Suckling
“Montes Folly is one of Chile’s benchmark wines, and sets the bar for Syrah from Apalta which has now become the region’s calling card. Opens with a seductive nose of exotic spice, fresh black pepper and a dense core of black fruit and smoked meat, and leads through to a rich wine with an almost chocolate-like silkiness and density. A wine for hedonists.”
