Discover the exciting history behind Concha y Toro's wines

Concha y Toro Winery is one of the oldest and most recognized wineries in Chile. It was founded in 1883 by Don Melchor de Concha y Toro, who planted the first vines in the Maipo Valley, near Santiago, Chile. In the beginning, the winery was mainly dedicated to the production of wines for family and local consumption.

At that time, the Chilean wine industry was booming, but most wineries produced low-quality wines for local consumption. Concha y Toro decided to invest in technology and know-how to improve the quality of its wines and stand out from its competitors.

Over time, the quality of Concha y Toro's wines became known worldwide, which led the winery to expand and improve its technology and production processes. Today, Concha y Toro is one of the largest and most successful wineries in Latin America, with vineyards in several valleys in Chile and a presence in more than 140 countries.

Among Concha y Toro's most famous wines are Casillero del Diablo, Don Melchor, and Marques de Casa Concha, among others. There is a legend surrounding its most famous wine "Casillero del Diablo" where, according to Don Melchor de Concha y Toro, he spread the rumor that the devil lived in his cellar to prevent workers from stealing his best wines. This rumor became popular and led to the launch of the "Casillero del Diablo" brand, which became a worldwide success and one of Chile's most recognized wines.
