Casillero del Diablo offers wine lovers the very special opportunity to participate in the propagation of a century old legend known throughout the world. In the 19th century, the founder of Concha y Toro, Don Melchor, discovered that his vineyard workers were sampling his greatest wines. To discourage this action, Don Melchor spread the rumor that his deepest, darkest cellar was the Casillero del Diablo , so that no one would dare go in there. It worked, and a legend was born. Today, this mysterious and legendary cellar continues to hold the finest, estate grown wines of Casillero del Diablo. A classic New World Shiraz aged in American oak for 8 months and full of blackberries and dark plums, not to mention that spicy Shiraz note and mouth-filling vanilla character, you can even taste the hints of New World Shiraz chocolate. (12 x 75 cl)
Proof that big Chilean wineries do not have to be boring, this is a delicious and extremely well priced Viognier with elegant nicely balanced flavours of peach, apricot and lemon.
Dark and deep crimson red colour. Notes of plums, black fruit, chocolate and spice on the nose. It is a well-balanced, round wine with firm tannins. (12 x 75 cl)
