Brief Description

Tasting Notes

Montes Merlot is bright ruby red in colour with an intense aromatic complexity.

Black plums and blackberries are complemented by caramel, vanilla and nutmeg from the oak contact. The palate is smooth and well balanced with good levels of natural acidity and soft, round tannins that lend a pleasing sweet sensation to the mid-palate, before a long, fruity finish.

About

The grapes came mainly from the most coastal part of the Colchagua Valley in Chile.

The grapes were cold soaked for three to four days to extract aroma and colour before being fermented in stainless steel tanks for 10-15 days, remaining on skins for additional structure and colour.

After malolactic conversion, 45% of the final blend was aged in second-use French oak barrels for 10 months to add complexity and roundness to the wine.

Ideal with...

Slow-cooked beef and fries, cannelloni and lasagna.
