Share

Wine Spectator recently published a selection of the best and most recent wines tasted by critic Kim Marcus. The influential magazine highlighted the 2015 Marques de Casa Concha Chardonnay as the best white wine on the list, and also positioned it as the Best Chardonnay from the Limarí Valley.

This white by winemaker Marcelo Papa earned 90 points—the highest score for a Chardonnay from this vintage—and was praised for its origins in the Quebrada Seca Vineyard in the Limarí Valley, whose climatic conditions and unique soils give rise to fresh and mineral wines.

“Steely and rich, with powerful ­flavors of dried apple, pear and allspice. Luscious honeysuckle details show midpalate, accented by notes of dried citrus on the crisp finish.” Kim Marcus
