Steeped in one of the wine world's most famous legends, Casillero del Diablo (the 'Devil's Cellar') owes its name to the winery's founder, Don Melchor de Concha y Toro. To protect his finest private reserve from thieves, he spread the rumor that the devil himself guarded his dark, underground cellars. Today, this iconic Cabernet Sauvignon represents the quintessential Chilean expression of the grape, sourced from select vineyards across the fertile Central Valley. The wine is typically aged in American and French oak barrels, resulting in a structured yet approachable red characterized by rich notes of blackcurrant, dark plums, and subtle hints of vanilla, toast, and sweet spices.
