Yes, I have given a review of the Montes Alpha Cab 2005 -but this is the 2006.  It is equally good in terms of quality and value.  It is now one of my standard Cabs.  Another favorite standard Cab is Liberty School, just FYI.

Purchased at Costco – as always, a good value.  This is also a 9.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red color, the expression of cabernet sauvignon is evident providing structure and elegance. Lots of berries fruits and hints of tobacco and vanilla. Promising abundant soft rounded tannins. The structure and balance of this full bodied wine makes it very pleasant and enjoyable. A very sophisticated wine with a delightfully long finish.

  1. Totally in love with this wine, and I am amazed at how sophisticated it is for only twenty bones, check out my review too.

    Everyone seems to buy from Costco but me, I need to remedy that…
