Description

"Brightly fruited and nicely fragrant, the appealing bouquet shows dark plum, raspberry, dried herb and mixed spice aromas, followed by a juicy palate that is vibrant and smooth at the same time. The wine offers youthful fruit intensity and smooth texture, finishing pleasingly dry. At its best: now to 2019" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2017

"Beautifully fragrant style, with floral and pure aromatics and a sleek, refined palate. Elegantly generous, with soft gentle fruit and balancing resistance from lightly sappy tannins." International Wine Challenge, May 2017

"Saturated black-red colour with youthful purple hues. The nose is full with initially stylishly restrained aromas that unfold to show deeply concentrated ripe blackberry fruit with cassis notes, along with blackberries and subtle notesof dark herbs and fine pencilly oakelements. Medium-full bodied, the palate isrich and vibrant with flavours of ripe blackcurrants and blackberries, along with notes of cassis liqueur, unfolding nuances of savoury herbs. The fruit forms a deep and well-concentrated core which is supported by considerable fine- grained tannin extraction. The mouthfeel is enlivened by fresh, lacy acidity and the wine carries with good power and drive to a long and sustained finish of blackcurrants. This is a rich blackcurrant and blackberry fruited Carmenere with fine structure, concentration and a fresh mouth feel. Match with roast lamb and beef dishes over the next 7-9 years. A blend of 90% Carmenere and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon from Peumo, Cachapoal Valley, vines planted 1994-1996, fermented to14.0% alc., the wine aged 16 monthsin French oak barrels." Raymond Chan

The Marques de Casa Concha is a classical style which expresses the character, nobility and concentration of the grapes which have had a long history in Chile. Prize-winners year by year, it has been ranked three times in the prestigious ranking of the Top 100 Wines of the Year, by Wine Spectator.

Dark and deep red. It has a classic Peumo Carmenere profile of intense dark plums, black currants, and dark chocolate. It is modern in tannins wich are soft and finely ground. The wine shows firm tannic structure, with a crisp bite of acidity.
