Trio Chardonnay

Romazini: 4/5 Stars

Fullbodied and ripe blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Riesling. Powerfull yet wonderfully suave. A solid value!

Robert Parker: 90/100 Points

Vintage 2008: The 2008 Trio Reserva White Blend from the cool Casablanca region is composed of Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Blanc. It exhibits an aromatic array of poached pear, melon, mineral, and peach leading to a dry wine with exceptional concentration and depth for its humble price. This lengthy effort should be consumed over the next 12-18 months.

Concha y Toro is Chile's largest winery in volume and, remarkably given its size, one of its finest in overall quality. However, the entry level Casillero del Diablo range had more misses than hits. The Trio Series is made by one of Chile's most renowned winemakers, Ignacio Recabarren, who is also responsible for the other-worldly Terrunyo Carmenere Carmin de Peumo. The Trio wines rank with the greatest wine bargains on the planet.

The Winemaker

Light yellow with a green hue. Intense aromas of clean fresh fruit, honey, apple, lime, lemon. Fresh, balanced and delicate palate. Jicy and minerally acidity support the nice structure.
