Region: Alto Maipo, Maipo Valley, Chile
Varietal: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting Notes: Deep ruby-red colour, with very delicate and elegant aromas dominated by ripe red berries, such as strawberry and plum, with some red currant , as well as creme de cassis and cherry syrup. Its time spent in oak barrels adds notes of tobacco, dulce de leche, and mocha, all well balanced with the fruit profile. The tannins are very smooth and in line with the purity of the aromas. The wine is vibrant and broad, but balanced at the same time, showing complexity and a long finish.
Montes Muse was made with love and passion, using hand-selected grapes from a very special origin, in one of the most renowned grape-growing areas in Chile, Alto Maipo, in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, 460 meters above sea level, on the southern bank of the Maipo River.
It marks Aurelio Montes Badesen's 50th harvest and is also homage to the women in his family. Very limited production, only 6000 bottles made.
