点评:Vina Montes is very charming. Our tour guide Nastasia was the cherry on top! Ask for her. You won't regret it. Our tour started with a scenic ride to an overlook of the vineyard and drive by of the friendly llama pen. Montes uses goats and llamas to clean up the vines after the harvest. The wine production facility tour was fascinating, as was the view of the wine lab. However, the barrel aging room with the gregorian chants was almost unworldly. Between the smells and chants, it was really meditative. The quantity and quality of tastings was also superb. They also bring out the reserve good stuff! My favorites were the Montes Alpha M and the sparkling! Nas was quite instructive and illustratve with her knowledge and use of wine samples in her teaching. She even answered our wine vintage questions with vertical wine sample examples. I really learned a lot about their wine, chilean wine production, and the vineyard's history. Hoping they start shipping their sparking wine to the U.S. soon so I can order some to toast at my wedding!
翻译:蒙特斯酒庄 (Vina Montes) 魅力十足。我们的导游纳斯塔西娅 (Nastasia) 更是锦上添花!一定要找她,绝对不会后悔。我们的旅程从风景优美的骑行开始,前往俯瞰葡萄园的观景台,然后驱车经过友好的骆驼围栏。蒙特斯酒庄会在葡萄收获后用山羊和骆驼清理葡萄藤。葡萄酒生产设施之旅令人着迷,葡萄酒实验室的景色也同样令人着迷。然而,酒桶陈酿室里播放着格里高利圣咏,仿佛置身于世外桃源。在香气和圣咏的环绕中,仿佛真的让人心旷神怡。品酒的数量和质量也都非常棒。他们还会推出珍藏的佳酿!我最喜欢的是蒙特斯阿尔法 M 和起泡酒!纳斯塔西娅的知识渊博,并且在教学中运用葡萄酒样品,非常具有指导意义。她甚至用垂直放置的葡萄酒样品解答了我们关于葡萄酒年份的问题。我真正学到了很多关于他们的葡萄酒、智利葡萄酒生产以及葡萄园历史的知识。希望他们能尽快开始将起泡酒运往美国,这样我就可以订购一些来在我的婚礼上敬酒!
