Montes Limited Selection Leyda Valley Sauvignon Blanc, Chile, is a vibrant White (still) wine that is refreshingly dry. Crafted from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes, this unoaked expression from the cool Leyda Valley offers fresh and elegant aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, and green bell pepper, complemented by a hint of orange blossom. The palate is juicy and invigorating, revealing layers of vibrant yellow grapefruit and distinct mineral notes, leading to a long, clean finish. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with lean fish, shellfish, or fresh goat cheese.

Vinification
Grapes were cold soaked at temperatures below 10ºC for at least 10 hours, to extract aromas, and then separated from the skins and racked to a stainless steel tank, where they remained for 12–24 hours before racking. Alcoholic fermentation took place at temperatures of 11–12ºC for 21 days, and once this finished, sulphites were added and the wine was racked. The wine had no contact with oak during ageing, but was stabilised before bottling.
