Montes Alpha, M, Aplata Vineyare, Chile 2018

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. Their 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 their Marchigüe vineyards, immersed in an undulating landscape that ends in the Pacific Ocean (25 km away), where thier red grapes mature slowly under the influence of somewhat colder temperatures.
