Predominance of ripe red and black fruit aromas such as strawberries, plums, and fighs on the nose. Notes of crème de cassis intermingle with sweet spices such as nutmeg and black pepper. In palate, the wine stands out for its well-balanced acidity, medium body, and incredibly smooth tannins. The moderately persistent finish echoes the notes perceived on the nose.
The Montes Winery is right in the heart of Apalta, a beautiful area of the Colchagua Valley. This large, modern winery is impressive with its inventive design, feng shui approach and Gregorian chants played to mature barrels.
The first activities at vineyard began in 1987. Two partners with great dreams, Aurelio Montes, head winemaker and Douglas Murray, both with long-standing experience in the wine industry. The first premium wine that brought fame to the winery, was the Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon which is still produced today. Several of the Montes wines continue to score 90+ points through the Wine Advocate and Wine Enthusiast.
Montes Classic wines are true ambassadors, representing the outstanding value Chile can offer for everyday drinking. Grapes are hand-picked and transported to the winery with the utmost care, to keep bunch damage to an absolute minimum. Montes Classic Series grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
