Montes, Alpha Chardonnay 2022

Chardonnay from Chile of a particularly high quality level

A chic Chardonnay from Chile. Complexity and subtlety go hand in hand. With a bright, golden yellow color. Seductive aromas and flavors of ripe tropical fruit, soft stone fruit, and fresh grapefruit. A hint of asparagus in the background, characteristic of Chardonnay wines from Casablanca. Also a touch of toast, a result of oak aging. Richness and freshness, everything in perfect balance.

Such a full-bodied, rich wine is the ultimate food wine. Perfect with a leisurely lunch or a hearty dinner.

Winemaker

Montes is a leading winemaker in Chile and was instrumental in the country's recent quality improvement. Aurelio Montes Sr. was named Chile's most influential winemaker for this achievement.

In 1987, Aurelio Montes and three partners took the initiative to start a wine company with the goal of unleashing Chile's full potential as a wine country and producing the highest possible quality wine. This has been quite successful; Montes is one of Chile's absolute top producers, and Aurelio was recently named the country's most influential winemaker. Montes owns five vineyards. Three of them are located in the Curico Valley and two in the Colchagua Valley, together covering 600 hectares. In 2004, a brand-new winery was built in Alpalta, designed according to the Chinese Fengh Shui philosophy. Aurelio Jr. has also made his mark as a winemaker, and together with his father, he forms a close-knit and successful team.
