MONTES LIMITED SELECTION ACONCAGUA COSTA PINOT NOIR
The fruit is sourced from the Casablanca and Leyda Valleys, sub-regions within Chile's cool Aconcagua Costa region. Casablanca lies 25 kilometres from the Pacific Ocean, where morning fog and cool breezes extend the ripening period. This allows for the development and preservation of delicate aromas and acidity, a crucial factor in producing fine Pinot Noirs. The Leyda Valley, situated nine kilometres from the ocean, features predominantly granite and clay soils, which contribute a vibrant freshness and minerality to the wine.
