Marques De Casa Concha Shyrah 75cl

This Chilean Syrah is bold, savoury, and seriously satisfying, a red wine for when you want flavour that shows up and doesn’t fade into the background.

If you’ve ever poured a red that smelled great but tasted flat, this is the fix. Marques de Casa Concha Syrah brings the full picture, deep fruit, spice, and that slightly smoky, cocoa-tinged finish that keeps you coming back for another sip.

• Appearance: Deep ruby to purple, with a darker core that hints at concentration.
• Nose: Blackberry, ripe plum, black pepper, plus a savoury edge like dried herbs and a little cedar.
• Taste: Dark berries and cassis lead, then spice, cocoa, and a touch of coffee. Dry style, medium-plus acidity, and firm tannins that give it grip.
• Body: Full-bodied, with a weighty, mouth-filling feel that suits hearty meals.
• Finish: Long and peppery, with lingering dark fruit and a faint toastiness.

What makes it worth your attention is the balance between ripe fruit and savoury spice. You get that classic Syrah black-pepper kick, but it’s not just a one-note spice bomb. There’s depth here, layers of berries, cocoa, and an earthy, herbal twist that makes it feel like a “real” red wine, not fruit juice in a fancy outfit.

This is a great pick when you want a Chilean red wine that can handle big flavours at the table. Think grilled meats, burgers, steak, or anything with char and smoke. It also works with richer vegetarian dishes, like mushroom-based plates or lentil stews, because the tannins and spice love anything savoury.

If you’re stocking up your red wine rotation, this sits in that sweet spot between easy-drinking and interesting. Confident enough for a dinner with friends, but still totally fair game for a random Tuesday when you want something with backbone.

Fun Fact: Marques de Casa Concha is part of the Concha y Toro family, one of Chile’s most famous producers, and the “Casa Concha” name nods to the founding family behind the winery.
