✨ Technical Specifications
The Marques de Casa Concha line, debuted in 1976, pays homage to the noble title granted to the founder of Concha y Toro by King Philip V of Spain in 1718. This Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the cool-climate vineyards of the Leyda Valley within the coastal zone of the Aconcagua region. Situated a mere 14 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean, the vines benefit from morning mists and cooling sea breezes that slow ripening and preserve natural acidity. Grown on rolling hills with clay and decomposed granite soils, the grapes are harvested by hand and fermented primarily in stainless steel tanks. This precise vinification captures the classic coastal Chilean expression: vibrant mineral tension, intense citrus aromas, and a distinct herbal complexity.
🍾 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.
