The grapes are sourced from a single vineyard ranging from 120 to 150 metres above sea level, in the Zapallar region of Aconcagua. Just eleven kilometres from the Pacific coast, Montes was the first producer to plant vines and make wines here. The soils have a high clay content and the climate is influenced significantly by both the proximity to the ocean and the Andes mountains. The resulting wines have racy acidity, minerality, elegance and distinct aromatics. Albariño Outer Limits has a bright lemon-yellow appearance. It stands out because of its intense aromatic freshness, with citrus notes of grapefruit, sweet pear, and nectarine. On the palate, it is mineral and saline, reflecting its coastal origin, with vibrant acidity and intense flavours of fresh fruit. It has a medium body and a silky, fresh finish. Vina Montes
