✨ Technical Specifications
Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva is steeped in one of the wine world's most famous legends. In the late 19th century, founder Don Melchor de Concha y Toro, seeking to protect his finest private reserve wines from thieves, spread the rumor that the devil himself guarded his dark cellars. The ruse worked perfectly, giving birth to the legendary 'Devil's Cellar' name. Today, this Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from select vineyards across Chile's Central Valley, where warm sunny days and cooling breezes from the Andes create ideal ripening conditions. The wine is aged in French and American oak barrels, yielding a classic Chilean style characterized by ripe blackcurrant, plum, and subtle hints of vanilla and toasted oak.
🍾 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.
