✨ Technical Specifications
Casillero del Diablo, or 'The Devil's Cellar,' is steeped in one of the wine world's most famous legends. In the late 19th century, founder Don Melchor de Concha y Toro spread a rumor that the devil inhabited his cellar to prevent locals from stealing his finest wines. This iconic Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from selected vineyards across Chile's Central Valley, where a Mediterranean climate with warm days and cool night breezes from the Andes allows the grapes to achieve optimal ripeness. The wine is aged in French and American oak barrels, resulting in a classic expression of Chilean Cabernet that balances bright black fruit flavors with structured tannins and a touch of sweet spice.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1883 by Don Melchor de Concha y Toro and his wife Emiliana Subercaseaux, Viña Concha y Toro is Chile's preeminent wine producer and a cornerstone of South American winemaking history. Headquartered in Pirque within the historic Maipo Valley, the estate originated with noble French cuttings sourced directly from Bordeaux, laying the groundwork for a portfolio that now spans Chile's finest valleys from Limarí to Peumo. Concha y Toro pairs cutting-edge viticultural science with meticulous stewardship, crafting wines that reflect the diverse microclimates and soils of the Central Valley, Aconcagua, and southern regions. The winery is universally celebrated for benchmark red varietals—most notably expressive Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenère—exemplified in prestige cuvées such as Carmín de Peumo, the Terrunyo series, and the enduring Marques de Casa Concha label.
