Marques de Casa Concha Peumo Concha y Toro 2002
The 2002 Marques de Casa Concha is a red wine produced by Concha y Toro, originating from the D.O. Peumo in Chile's Rapel Valley. The Marques de Casa Concha line was created as a tribute to the title conferred upon the Concha y Toro family in 1718 by King Phillip V of Spain. Concha y Toro itself was founded in 1883 by Don Melchor Concha y Toro, a Chilean politician and businessman who brought French vines and winemakers from Bordeaux to Chile. Today, headquartered in Pirque, south of Santiago, it stands as one of Latin America's largest wine producers and a globally recognized brand.
This specific vintage is crafted from grapes grown in the prime Peumo Vineyards within the Rapel Valley. Concha y Toro cultivates vines across multiple Chilean regions, including the Maipo, Maule, Casablanca, and Colchagua valleys, allowing them to utilize both cool coastal zones and warmer inland areas. Following the harvest, this limited production wine was barrel-aged in French oak for fourteen months.
The wine is made from Merlot, a classic blue grape variety that is typically cultivated in renowned wine regions such as Bordeaux, California, Washington, and Northern Italy. Concha y Toro has a long-standing reputation for quality, producing highly regarded wines like the Cabernet Sauvignon-based Don Melchor, and engaging in prestigious joint ventures such as Almaviva, a 1997 partnership with Baron Philippe de Rothschild that set a new standard for Chilean wine.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Rapel Valley
Rapel Valley is one of the largest and most recognized wine regions in Chile, located in the country's vast Central Valley (Valle Central) south of the capital Santiago. The region stretches between the Andes Mountains in the east and the coastal mountain range to the west. It is generally divided into two prominent subregions: Cachapoal Valley in the northern part and Colchagua Valley in the southern part, both of which are named after the rivers that flow through the landscape.
The climate in Rapel Valley is predominantly Mediterranean with warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters. The coastal mountain range partially shields the valley from the cold influence of the Pacific Ocean, which creates a warm and sunny environment. However, cool breezes pull in through the river valleys and down from the Andes Mountains, which provides significant temperature differences between day and night. This microclimate ensures a long and stable ripening period for the grapes.
The wine tradition in Rapel Valley truly took shape in the 19th century when French grape varieties from Bordeaux were introduced to the region. Today, the area is particularly famous for its production of red wines, which make up the majority of the total harvest. It is especially grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Merlot, and Syrah that thrive in the valley's warm climate and varied soil conditions, which has cemented Rapel Valley's status as a core area for classic Chilean red wine production.
When this wine was made, the world looked very different. Here are some of the stories that unfolded while this bottle quietly aged in its cellar.
