Tasting Note
A deep, dark red colour. Great aromatic intensity with upfront notes of juicy cherries, cassis, cedar, blackberries, black tar and fresh tobacco. The mouth is highly concentrated with a silky-smooth texture and firm tannins, which become apparent at the start of the long finish.

Marques de Casa Concha
The history of Concha y Toro and its relationship to the Puente Alto terroir dates back to 1968, when the winery acquired 400 hectares of vineyards in the Maipo Valley. Some of the first French varieties brought to Chile had been planted there, although the vineyard was later replanted to Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux varieties. This is how, in 1972, part of these grapes gave rise to the first Marques de Casa Concha Cabernet Sauvignon. And so began a long winemaking tradition in this valley and the Puente Alto zone in particular.
El Mariscal is located at an altitude of 600 masl and consists of 52.95 hectares, of which 46.23 are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, 4.52 with Cabernet Franc and 2.20 with Petit Verdot. The planting density is 5,500 plants/ha. The vines are mostly ungrafted and were produced using massal selection from phylloxera material.
