Soon the excellence of the wines<\/b>\u00a0produced became famous, and some tenants started to stealthily enter his personal wine cellar to steal his collection. Ingeniously, Melchor Concha y Toro spread the rumor that\u00a0the Devil appeared on the winery<\/b>\u00a0among the workers in the vineyard. Though this myth, he managed to salvage his best wines, and incidentally served to bring to life some of most powerful legends in global industry.<\/p>

Concha y Toro winery historical Cellar<\/h3>

The building has withstood without damage over time.<\/p>

Past earthquakes have not opened a single crack in the Concha y Toro winery<\/strong>, due to its “Cal y Canto” construction, a technique used by the Romans, brought by the Spaniards and typical in Chile in the 18th and 19th centuries.<\/p>

To join the bricks, it was used a mixture of lime, sand and egg and also some blood, as rumors said. This technique combines ingredients to bond the bricks in order to generate a larger structure with huge interior arches. In this location, the temperature hardly varies. Temperature is 57 \u00b0F in the winter and 60\u00b0F in the summer, without using air conditioning equipment. The soil is made of gravel and it gets watered every week to preserve high humidity conditions, which varies from 70% to 100%.<\/p>
