Description

Marques de Casa Concha Etiqueta Negra 2018

Grape Varietals & Region: A blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot & 1% Cabernet Franc from the El Mariscal Vineyard, D.O. Puente Alto, Alto Maipo Valley. Third alluvial terrace of Puente Alto, large content of round stones measuring around 50-70cm. Excellent drainage.

Taste Profile: Dark red. Oily body with notes of cherry, blackcurrant, cedar, blackberry and black tar, as well as a hint of graphite. It has a deep concentration of flavors framed by strong tannins. A soft, almost silky, texture masks the wine’s tannin structure, which really stands out at the beginning of the long finish.

Winemaking Process: The clusters are destemmed and then gravity-fed into the fermentation vats. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in closed stainless steel tanks and lasts 8 days. A traditional pump-over regime is used. Later the wine is kept in contact with its skins for around 10 days before being racked off. The wine undergoes a spontaneous malolactic fermentation. 16 months in French oak barrels. (60% new and 40% used).
