Don Melchor from Concha y Toro Alto Maipo Valley represents one of the most famous and historic wines of Chilean wine production. An excellent wine from a young country that has managed to gain a high level of respectability in the international panorama of the production of extremely high-quality grapes with mastery and respect for tradition. The area of origin corresponds to the terroir of Puente Alto, inserted in the context of the Maipo Valley, an area of Chile at the foot of the Andes mountain range with a marked Mediterranean climate, characterized by alluvial soils and gently sloping hills. The soil formed by erosion by glaciers is extremely rich in minerals, gravel, clay, and pebbles that give Don Melchor the bold, robust character typical of this wine. The wine is a still red, classified as DO Maipo, made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes with a 3% Cabernet Franc. The entire harvest of the grapes is done by hand to ensure a higher level of selection and avoid accidentally damaging the bunches. The very pronounced temperature range, typical of the Andean area, creates conditions that encourage the tannins to mature slowly and evenly. These conditions allow for the exceptional concentration of aromas, the intensity of color, and the perfect natural acidity that distinguish the grapes. The vines that produce Don Melchor are at least 30 years old and represent the lineage of a selection of Cabernet Sauvignon vines, originally from the Bordeaux area and brought to Chile in the late 19th century.
