Concha y Toro's Pinot Grigio from Chile's Central Valley is a testament to the country's diverse terroirs. While Chile is historically famous for its bold reds, the cool night breezes descending from the Andes Mountains and the maritime influence from the Pacific Ocean create an ideal microclimate in the Central Valley for cultivating crisp, aromatic white wines. This Pinot Grigio is crafted in a fresh, modern style, focusing on preserving the bright fruit purity and vibrant acidity. Fermented entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks without oak contact, it captures the lively essence of the grape, offering delicate floral aromas, pear, and citrus notes. It represents the winery's dedication to making approachable, high-quality wines that showcase the natural bounty of Chile's premier agricultural heartland.

Founded in 1883 by Don Melchor de Santiago Concha y Toro and his wife, Emiliana Subercaseaux, Viña Concha y Toro is Chile's most historic and globally recognized winery, headquartered in the picturesque commune of Pirque within the Maipo Valley. Under the stewardship of the Guilisasti family since the mid-20th century, the estate has expanded its reach across Chile's premier terroirs, from the coastal breezes of Casablanca to the warm, clay-rich soils of Peumo in the Cachapoal Valley. The winery is celebrated for its pioneering spirit and commitment to sustainability, producing world-class wines that showcase the diverse microclimates of Chile. Their portfolio is anchored by iconic expressions such as the critically acclaimed Carmín de Peumo Carmenere, the terroir-driven Terrunyo line, and the legendary, globally beloved Casillero del Diablo range.
