Montes Reserva Chardonnay

The Montes Reserva Chardonnay has the typical fruity style of this grape variety with a juicy peach aroma.

The 6-month ageing in American oak barrels gives it its balanced, subtle vanilla note without being overloaded or overly rich.

The grapes are destemmed and go straight into the press. The must ferments and matures for 6 months in American oak. Only 50% of the Chardonnay undergoes malolactic fermentation to keep it fresh and full-bodied. Diatomaceous earth and layer filtration take place before bottling.

This wine comes from the Curico Valley, where the cold breeze from the foothills of the Andes ensures that the grapes ripen slowly.

Parts of this Chardonnay were matured in new French oak barrels with multiple layers to preserve its fruity character. This process is carried out at controlled temperatures to help preserve the fruity aromas.

The wine is pale gold in color with greenish hues, aromas of butter, a hint of vanilla and tropical fruit. Fresh and fruity on the palate with good body and balance, creamy complexity and a lingering, elegant finish.

Drink the Chardonnay with salads with fried fish and shellfish, white meat and pasta with cream sauce.

Viña Montes

Aurelio Montes und Douglas Murray gründeten Viña Montes 1987 („Discover Wine“). Ein Jahr später kamen Alfredo Vidaurre und Pedro Grand hinzu. Alle verschrieben sich einem Traum: chilenische Weine auf eine höhere Qualitätsstufe zu heben. Der Erfolg stellte sich schnell ein: der erste Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon erntete 1987 schon große Anerkennung und etablierte sich als Spitzenwein genauso schnell wie Alphas Chardonnay, Merlot und Shiraz. Von Beginn an war Montes Alpha ein Synonym für höchste Qualität aus Chile. Das Weingut legt großen Wert darauf, eine Erfolgsgeschichte zu schreiben, die zu 100 Prozent chilenisch ist.

Viña Montes leistete Pionierarbeit in Apalta, einer für den Weinbau außergewöhnlich geeigneten Region im Colchagua-Tal. Die Kreationen, die aus diesen Lagen stammen, beeindruckten die Kritiker weltweit: der erste Ultra-Premium-Wein oder Super-Chilene Montes Alpha ‘M’ im klassischen Bordeaux-Stil wurde 1996 gefeiert. Beim Montes Folly – einem 100-prozentigen Shiraz – war das im Jahr 2000 nicht anders. Und auch der Purple Angel (92% Carménère), 2005 eingeführt, ist von Beginn an ein großer Erfolg.

La Finca de Apalta ist das Herzstück von Viña Montes. Auf 135 Hektar wachsen die Apalta -Trauben Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Shiraz, Malbec, Petit Verdot und Cabernet Franc. In jüngerer Zeit kamen Mourvèdre, Grenache und Carignan hinzu.
