Region

Central Valley Region

From the point of view of volumes, the Central Valley is one of the most important and largest winegrowing regions in South America. It extends from the coastal terrains of western Colchagua up to the Puento Alto foothills of the Andes. It is divided into the subregions of Colchagua and Cachapoal. Across 400 kilometres, a vast climatic diversity and a range of various soils produce an enormous range of wines, from traditional Chilean to trendy Bordeaux-style wines. In any case, Chile’s star grape Carmenere takes centre stage. In the cooler regions, vintners also like to experiment with other vine types like Viognier, Riesling, or Gewürztraminer.

Producer/Brand

Montes

The guardian angel stands in the form of a statue in every Montes wine cellar to bring luck. Since its establishment, it has been the companion of the top winemaker Aurelio Montes, an outstanding personality, and extends its protective hand over the wonderful wines. Because of this and thanks to his profound sense for new terroirs and top wines, Aurelio Montes has made it onto the international wine calendar. He has discovered Chile's potential and produces wines of the highest quality. Today the Montes winery includes vineyards in Apalta, Marchigüe and the cooler Zapallar area. It is of course family-owned and family-managed by Aurelio Montes with the support of his son Aurelio Montes junior.
