Montes Classic Series Casablanca Sauvignon Blanc Valle Central DO, Chile, is a vibrant still white wine crafted in a fresh, unoaked style. This dry Sauvignon Blanc offers intense fruity aromas of lemon zest, white peach, and pineapple, complemented by herbaceous hints of boxwood and tomato leaf. The palate is juicy and fresh with a racy acidity and a long, lively finish, showcasing pristine fruit character. Vinified without any oak contact, it highlights the varietal's natural expression. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with lean fish, shellfish, goat cheese, and a variety of vegetarian dishes.

Vinification
The grapes were harvested in the early morning and immediately brought to the winery where they were destemmed and cold soaked at 7-10°C for 6-12 hours, to allow the aromatic characteristics to be transferred from the skins to the must. After approximately 12 hours, the clean juice was separated from the coarse solids and transferred to its fermentation tank. The must was inoculated with selected yeasts and fermentation took place at 10-11°C, lasting approximately 21 days. Once fermentation was complete, the new wine was racked to separate it from its fine lees. The wine had no contact with any oak during vinification.
