Concha y Toro

We had a group excursion today to the Santiago bodega (winery) of Concha y Toro. Here they grow about 30% of the grapes they use for their wines, the rest are brought from producers around Chile and Argentina. The grounds were very impressive, beautiful buildings and gardens! In Argentina, I went to two much smaller bodegas, so this one was a definite contrast.




The entrance- Concha y Toro.















One sight of the vineyard itself.





This is down below in a cellar, called the Devil's Dungeon.




We were able to sample a Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon.




And take the wine glasses home with us!
