Montes Reserva

This could very well be Chile's most expressive, interesting white Sauvignon. It's got all those prickly pineapple, passion fruit, scallion and pepper notes that are typical, and also a lot of pure citrus flavors backing it all up. The mouthfeel is zesty and spirited, but there's natural roundness, too. Some licorice adds complexity to the finish. Best Buy.

Open passion fruit, mineral, lime rind, slightly floral melon aromas. Rich, round, slightly oily but balanced and fresh. Dry mineral, chalky, passion fruit, lime, grapefruit rind flavours with a touch of green melon and bell pepper on the finish. Very classy for a drier style. Good value.
