Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Pale yellow in color with green reflections, Terrunyo Sauvignon Blanc displays expressive fruit notes of gooseberries, lime and grapefruit intertwined with herbs. A medium-full bodied wine with ripe citrus flavors, herbal hints and fresh minerality. Crisp acidity is followed by a juicy, lingering finish.

Terrrunyo Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect accompaniment to fresh seafood, shellfish, and sushi.

Professional Ratings

92 James Suckling
At first, you get fresh herbs and grass, then this turns to freshly squeezed nectarines, limes and minerals. Medium to full body, finely cut acidity and a medium-long finish. Drink now.

COMMENTARY: The 2018 Concha y Toro Terrunyo Sauvignon Blanc Block 5 is excellent with persistence and length. TASTING NOTES: This wine satisfies the palate with aromas and flavors of earth, spice, and herbs. Pair it with a green salad with shrimp and mild goat cheese. (Tasted: February 28, 2020, San Francisco, CA)

Terrunyo Los boldos vineyard Winery Image

Inspired by a drive to highlight Chile’s most celebrated terroirs in a collection of varietal wines whose quality and finesse echo that of the world’s finest wines, Terrunyo wines are crafted with a philosophy of terroir in mind. Named for terruño, the Spanish word for terroir, each Terrunyo wine begins with hand-harvested fruit. A micro-climate, the chosen grape stock, a select piece of soil and an expert hand interact, creating perfect harmony and delivering unrivaled quality.

Sauvignon Blanc

View all products

Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.

Casablanca Valley Wine

Chile

View all products

A region that has become synonymous with some of the best whites of Chile, the Casablanca Valley is full of dozens of bodegas who either grow fruit here or come from outside to source from local growers for their own white wine programs. The valley runs from east to west, which means that its westernmost vineyards receive the most cooling influence from the reliable afternoon sea breezes. The soils also tend to be heavier in clay in the west, whereas the eastern end of the valley is warmer and its soils are predominantly granitic. Sauvignon blanc thrives here, Chardonnay does well and Pinot noir is not uncommon.
