Montes Classic Malbec

Colchagua is one of the Chilean wine valleys with the most international prestige, in which Viña Montes was a pioneer in establishing its production. This valley is located in the central zone of Chile, less than two hours driving from its capital, Santiago. Our beautiful vineyards are located in one of the best terroirs in the area, Apalta. Its unique characteristics and location, allow a mild exposure to the sun of the vines, which contributes to a slow, although more complete maturation of the grapes. In the same valley, between the Coastal Range and the sea, we find our Marchigüe vineyards, immersed in an undulating landscape that ends in the Pacific Ocean (25 km away), where our red grapes mature slowly under the influence of somewhat colder temperatures.

Tasting notes:
Deep red-violet in colour, Montes Classic Malbec shows great aromatic expression, with fresh black fruit like blueberry, plum and blackberry. There are certain floral aromas that appear together with aromas from the French oak, producing hints of nutmeg and cinnamon, as well as dulce de leche and toast from the barrels. The mouth is consistent with the nose, with medium body and very silky tannins. The wine’s finish is very long.
