Hailing from the historic Pirque vineyard in the Maipo Valley, the Terrunyo Cabernet Sauvignon Block Terrazas is a masterclass in Chilean terroir. The grapes are sourced specifically from 'Las Terrazas' (Block 3), situated on the old alluvial terraces of the Maipo River. Here, stony, nutrient-poor soils force the vines to dig deep, while cold evening breezes cascading down from the Andes Mountains create a dramatic diurnal temperature shift. This unique microclimate slows ripening, allowing the grapes to develop intense concentration, refined tannins, and a signature profile of cassis, graphite, and fresh mint. Aged in French oak barrels, this wine represents Concha y Toro's dedication to expressing the purest identity of a single, exceptional vineyard block.
