The most common grapes in the wines of Chile are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Carmenère, which has become the country’s signature red wine grape. Pinot Noir also has been planted and does well in cooler coastal vineyards. And while Chardonnay shows fairly well, it is Sauvignon Blanc that has the most potential to become a focus of white Chilean wine production.
Over recent decades, Chilean wine production has taken off and the country is now the fifth largest exporter of wines in the world. Most of its production comes from an 800 mile stretch of land near the geographical center of this long, north-to-south country positioned between the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Andes Mountains to the east. Valle Central, Chile's most famous growing region, is located in the heart of that 800 mile stretch.
JS9292 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Monday, January 3, 2022 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.RP9191 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2021 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. 900,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2021. (Luis Gutiérrez)
VN9696 pts. - Vinous - Jun 2022 The 2019 Clos Apalta from Apalta, Colchagua, was aged for 24 months in 90% new French barrels. Dark purple in the glass. The complex, nuanced nose offers mild notes of mint, pyrazines, ash and ripe dark fruit such as blackberry and blueberry with hints of undergrowth and tobacco, cedar and other aromas from the aging process. In the mouth, it’s indulgent and compact initially with refined, slightly reactive, young tannins, an expansive flow and a rich palate that delivers herbal flavors before the sustained, fruity finish. The good year has helped to enhance the depth of an already accomplished red with a well-proven ripe style. (Joaquín Hidalgo)RP9595 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2022 The 2019 Clos Apalta was produced with a blend of 70% Carmenere, 18% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot, extremely high in Carmenere and low in Cabernet Sauvignon in a ripe and warm year. It fermented with indigenous yeasts for four to five weeks, with manual punch-down of the cap, 67% in 7,500-liter French oak vats and 33% in new French oak barrels followed by malolactic in new French oak barrels. The élevage was 24 months in 90% new barrels and 10% second use. It’s powerful, big and ripe, with 15% alcohol and a pH of 3.57. It’s creamy and juicy, with very high ripeness and a notable absence of herbal notes; it’s oaky, smoky and decadent, coming through as luxurious, round, lush and velvety. It’s full-bodied and has abundant, small and powdery tannins. 103,944 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2021. (Luis Gutiérrez)SP9595 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2023 Balances muscle and grace in a complex package, with geranium and floral peppercorn-accented red currant notes up front, while the core is densely packed with blackberry and plum flavors that swirl around spiced chocolate details and swell with lively acidity. Ends with mineral twinges, firming tannins and a final wave of kirsch and chocolate. Carmenère, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2035. 8,662 cases made, 350 cases imported. (Aaron Romano)
RP9191 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2021 The Mediterranean 2019 Tectonia Grenache Petite Sirah Mourvedre has notes of dry straw, aromatic herbs and some spices and a medium to full-bodied palate with concentration and balance. It’s tasty and supple and displays fine, chalky tannins. 33,968 bottles produced. It was bottled after one year in barrel.
VN9292 pts. - Vinous - May 2021 The 2019 Pinot Noir Marques de Casa Concha from the San Julián vineyard in Limarí, 15 miles from the sea, planted in alluvial red clay soil, spent 11 months in French oak barrels. A medium-hued red, it offers crystal-clear aromas of sour cherry and earth and a bare-bones palate with a fine, silky texture and a slightly saline flavor.RP9191 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2021 The 2019 Marques de Casa Concha Pinot Noir was produced with fruit from vines planted in Limarí between 2006 and 2009. It’s ripe but has kept very good acidity and comes through as balanced and fresh while it’s also powerful. The oak feels more and more integrated, as the wine matured in French oak barrels, 15% of them new, for 11 months. 54,000 bottles were filled in April 2020.WE8888 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 4/1/2022 Piquant red-fruit aromas of cranberry, currant and raspberry include a note of iodine and a hint of dried meat. This is a lively style of Pinot that’s medium in weight. Spicy oak notes accent plum and raspberry flavors in front of a finish propelled by healthy acidity. (Michael Schachner)
JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Thursday, June 3, 2021 Black fruit, herbs, chili, black olives and spices on the nose. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins. Creamy, but structured and fresh in the mouth. Layered with a flavorful finish. Drink or hold.SP9191 pts. - Wine Spectator - May 31, 2021 Big, rich and juicy, with concentrated dark currant and plum paste flavors that are deftly balanced by notes of dried savory herbs.

Drink now through 2024. 22,000 cases made, 800 cases imported.VN9090 pts. - Vinous - May 2021 The 2019 Carmernere Montes Alpha hails from Apalta and Marchigüe and is blended with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 55% aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. Rich violet in the glass. The nose delivers ripe blackberry aromas with hints of white and green pepper. Indulgent in the mouth with firm tannins, an ample, extractive palate and good body. The cleansing finish is of dark fruit.
RP9393 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2021 Even more impressive is the 2019 Parinacota, a blend of Syrah with 30% Cariñena from Maule, that has profound flavors, energy and balance. It has Mediterranean character with good ripeness while keeping the freshness. 26,092 bottles.
