The 2007 Folly is 100% Syrah sourced from yields of 1.5 tons/acre and aged for 18 months in new French oak. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it sports an alluring bouquet of smoke, game, bacon, lavender, blueberry, and black raspberry. Layered and opulent on the palate with enough structure for 5-6 years of further evolution, it promises exceptional complexity with extended time in the cellar. It should be at its best from 2017 to 2027.Aurelio Montes has a well-earned reputation as one of Chile’s foremost vignerons. The Montes wines offer great value at the lower end of the spectrum and set the bar for what can be achieved in Chile at the higher end.Importer: TGIC Imports, Woodland Hills, CA; www.tgicimports.com

I can only say amazing. It has all the depth and complexity of the best syrahs of the world. Spice, meat, pepper, tobacco, cinnamon, and blackberry aromas follow through to a full body with ultra-velvety tannins and ripe fruit plus Cuban cigar tobacco. Long and flavorful finish. A triumph. Drink now.

A rich, open-knit red, displaying mulled fig, plum and cassis notes woven with fine layers of spice cake, cigar box and underbrush. Full-bodied, if a touch hot, with a long toasty finish. Syrah. Drink now through 2018. 350 cases imported. –NW
