Montes Limited Selection, Sauvignon Blanc, 2011

MONTES – Aurelio Montes, Douglas Murray

Two partners with great illusions, Aurelio Montes and Douglas Murray, both holding long-standing experience in the wine industry, were certain Chile could improve on the quality it was producing at the time. It seemed as if the large and medium-scale vineyards were satisfied with limiting their distribution to local supermarkets. They certainly knew how to produce premium wines, but didn’t feel up to it, they were satisfied with the niche markets they had attained, which was certainly broad, although small. In 1988, another two original partners joined in, Alfredo Vidaurre and Pedro Grand, each providing their qualified, complimentary views, and thus, Viña Montes was formally born, initially under the name Discover Wine Ltd., a saga that has made Chile internationally known in 100+ countries worldwide while providing extensive recognition and acclaim.

Clear, crispy and fruity wine with light yellow-green colour, bright and transparent. The aroma shows its power and super Sauvignon Blanc character.
