Description
Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon is a world-renowned, rich, and beautifully balanced red wine crafted by Concha y Toro in the legendary Central Valley of Chile. The name, meaning Devil's Cellar, pays homage to the famous nineteenth-century legend created by founder Don Melchor, who spread rumours that the devil guarded his finest reserve wines to deter thieves. Sourced from sun-drenched vineyards beneath the snow-capped Andes, this iconic Cabernet Sauvignon stands as a global benchmark for dark fruit concentration, structural smooth elegance, and reliable viticultural excellence.
Why You'll Love It
This wine stands out for its bold berry intensity, supple tannins, and seamless oak character. Grown in alluvial soils exposed to intense daytime sunshine and cool evening breezes flowing from the Pacific Ocean and Andean mountains, the grapes develop rich sugars and smooth phenolic ripeness while retaining lively natural acidity. Matured carefully in American oak barrels, it delivers an irresistible bouquet of ripe cassis, black cherries, subtle mint, and warming vanilla spice.
Vineyard & Production
The grapes are carefully harvested from select vineyard plots across the prime valleys of Chile's Central Valley region. Upon arrival at the winery, the fruit undergoes gentle destemming and cold maceration to extract rich color and pure varietal aromatics. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, followed by aged maturation in American oak casks to soften the tannin profile and impart delicate notes of sweet spice and toasted wood prior to bottling.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it reveals a deep garnet-red colour with dark violet highlights. The nose is inviting, intense, and berry-forward, opening with generous aromas of ripe blackcurrant, dark plum, and wild blackberry, accented by subtle nuances of cedar, mocha, fresh mint, and sweet vanilla. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied, smooth, and well-rounded, offering lush black fruit flavours supported by soft, velvety tannins and a gentle streak of acidity that leads into a clean, fruit-driven finish.
Perfect Pairings
With its generous dark fruit profile and supple tannin structure, this Chilean red is a versatile choice for red meats and savoury dishes. It pairs magnificently with grilled ribeye steak, roasted leg of lamb, barbecue bacon cheeseburgers, and hearty beef stews. It is also an excellent partner for rich pasta dishes, wild mushroom pizzas, and semi-hard cheeses such as Cheddar, Gouda, or Provolone.
