MONTGRAS ANTU

GRENACHE- SYRAH - CARIGNAN

From vineyards planted in 2000 from Blocks Nº 80, 97 & 99 in the renowned terroir of Ninquén, Chile’s first mountain vineyard. Each variety was harvested separately, starting with the Syrah, then the Grenache and finally the Carignan due to its naturally high acidity. Then the grapes were transported to the winery to be destemmed and undergo a cold pre-fermentative maceration for 3 days. Then they underwent a traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures of not more than 28°C (82°F). Next the wine underwent a post-fermentative maceration in order to enhance the volume on the palate.100% of the wine was aged in third-use French oak barrels for 12 months.
