  1. Després de 21 anys en aïllament a una presó surt en llibertat l'Ana Belén #Montes, una oficial d'alt rang dels serveis d'intel·ligència militars dels #EEUU que col·laborava secretament amb #Cuba (sense rebre ni un cèntim a canvi) per frustrar les operacions de desestabilització a l'illa.

    "Vaig obeir la meva consciència abans que la llei... Em sentia obligada moralment a ajudar l'illa a defensar-se dels nostres intents per imposar-los els nostres valors i sistema polític"

  2. The great Aurelio Montes, one of the godfathers of Chilean wine.
    I first met Aurelio about 16 years ago when I had to shoot him for Decanter magazine. He was late and I was panicking as Decanter needed the images the next day. In the store at the winery was a full sized cardboard cutout of Aurelio. I started to shoot that as a last resort when he came in. We still joke about this.

  3. A bottle of 2019 Montes Purple Angel is on offer tonight. It's 92% Carménère and 8% Petit Verdot.

    James Sucking gives this a 98 and various commentators call for cellaring it for up to a decade. It's young but delicious right now and I don't care what anyone says, it tastes of fresh peach and cherries at the moment. Glad we scored a couple more, though I doubt we're waiting a decade.
