Montes Classic Sauvignon Blanc 2020
RM75.20
Tasting Notes
Brilliant pale yellow in colour with glints of green. The intense and cheerful nose offers aromas of fresh citrus, like lime and pink grapefruit, accompanied by notes of pineapple and fresh white peach. A faint greenness in the background is evidence of its coastal origins. The palate
has a naturally well-balanced acidity; it’s crunchy but with a rounded sensation on the midpalate. The wine is fresh and entertaining with a long finish that is very much in line with its expression on the nose.
Food Pairing:
Food Pairing: Highly recommended with sushi, Cesar salad, ceviche, garlic shrimp, grilled Mahi-Mahi, pasta primavera, seafood
chowder and lemon chicken.

Description
VINEYARDS
The vineyards are located in the Aconcagua Coast region and planted on granitic soils with a predominance of clay, although some sectors have sandier soils. Most of the vineyards are planted on low to moderate hills with diverse exposures and different clones, such as 1, 242, 5, and 107, each of which contributes to the final complexity of the wine. The vineyards are trained to vertical shoot position and have densities of 2,666–6,250 plants per hectare. Pruning aims to achieve good canopies that keep the fruit covered during the months when sunlight is the most intense. This helps maintain the freshness and varietal expression in the grapes. Yields are medium to low, with an average of 10 tons per hectare.
