✨ Technical Specifications
The Marques de Casa Concha heritage dates back to 1718 when King Philip V of Spain bestowed the noble title upon the family of Concha y Toro's founder. This Edicion Limitada Chardonnay represents a modern exploration into Chile's cool southern frontier, specifically the Bío-Bío Valley in the Sur region. Benefiting from a cold climate, abundant rainfall, and red clay soils of volcanic origin, the grapes undergo a slow ripening process that preserves intense natural acidity. The wine is typically fermented and aged in French oak barrels, resulting in a sophisticated Chardonnay that beautifully marries vibrant citrus and green apple notes with a delicate toasted hazelnut complexity and a creamy, textured finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1883 by Don Melchor de Concha y Toro and his wife Emiliana Subercaseaux, Viña Concha y Toro is Chile's preeminent wine producer and a cornerstone of South American winemaking history. Headquartered in Pirque within the historic Maipo Valley, the estate originated with noble French cuttings sourced directly from Bordeaux, laying the groundwork for a portfolio that now spans Chile's finest valleys from Limarí to Peumo. Concha y Toro pairs cutting-edge viticultural science with meticulous stewardship, crafting wines that reflect the diverse microclimates and soils of the Central Valley, Aconcagua, and southern regions. The winery is universally celebrated for benchmark red varietals—most notably expressive Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenère—exemplified in prestige cuvées such as Carmín de Peumo, the Terrunyo series, and the enduring Marques de Casa Concha label.
