2019 Concha Y Toro 'Marques de Casa Concha' Cabernet Sauvignon Maipo Valley

Winemaker Notes:  This Cabernet Sauvignon comes from vineyards that grow near the foothills of the Andes Mountains in the Maipo Valley. The rocky soils are alluvial in origin, poor nutrients, and highly permeable due to the abundance of gravel in the subsoil. This limited-production Cabernet Sauvignon features black fruit aromas, highly concentrated flavors, firm tannins and a smooth texture.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Blackberries, ripe cherries, chili chocolate, cedar, walnuts and charcoal on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with supple tannins and fresh acidity. Polished, silky and creamy finish. Pretty cabernet. Drink now or hold."


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "I find the 2019 Marques de Casa Concha Cabernet Sauvignon to be quite subtle and elegant, with clear Maipo profile, a little minty and spicy. Like the majority of varietal wines, it also contains small amounts of other grapes, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petit Verdot in this case. It's medium to full-bodied and reveals very good balance and freshness."


Wine Enthusiast - "Notes of eucalyptus and earthy plum are aromatic. Made with grapes sourced from Maipo Valley, this full-bodied red features a concentrated palate and usual layers of herbs, spices and cigar box. It's flavorful with hints of smoke lingering in the aftertaste."
