The 2021 Vintage:
As experienced by almost all Chile’s winemaking regions, the Maipo area had a winter of low rainfall; any recorded bouts of rain were rather short, but intense. However, the volume of water accumulated over the season was sufficient for the vines to reach harvest. Montes Muse 2021 is balanced and very elegant, boasting medium body and well-balanced acidity. Silky tannins fill the mouth, leaving a fresh and lengthy finish.
Tasting notes
Montes Muse 2021 has an enticing, deep ruby-red colour. The nose has pronounced aromas of red fruit, such as cherry and ripe strawberry, cassis liqueur, dried plum, and liquorice. Additionally, notes of dulce de leche and tobacco, characteristic of ageing in French oak, beautifully complement the aromatic profile. On the palate, it is balanced and very elegant, boasting medium body and well-balanced acidity. Silky tannins fill the mouth, leaving a fresh and lengthy finish.
