The Cabernet Sauvignon grape has been grown in Chile for almost 150 years. Concha y Toro has developed a reputation for excellent Cabernets year after year. The wine is admired as an example of quality Chilean winemaking, with amazing depth and character, especially considering its low price. The color is brilliant red with a touch of violet.

Sunrise Chardonnay grapes are grown near the Andes Mountains in the Central Valley, where the high altitudes and the resulting cool night-time temperature of the vineyards assure slow and steady grape development over the growing season. This allows the Concha y Toro winemakers to produce a Chardonnay of great character and elegance. Sunrise Chardonnay is fruity and crisp. Fresh, dry, well bodied with a nice balance makes it easy to drink.. Excellent with chicken, seafood, veal and pork dishes as well as medium-sauced pastas. Serve chilled.
