The 2012 Montgras Carmenere Reserva has intense notes of lees, green stems, milky red currant, strawberry and raspberry. It is a medium bodied, extra-dry, fruity wine; with forward acidity, grippy tannins (decant for 30 min) and a medium to long, vanilla finish. This is a food friendly or sipping wine; drink now – 2016+. My impression: NICE 89-90 pts – recommended for its quality and value. Tasted Dec/13
