✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the cool-climate vineyards of the Aconcagua region, where maritime breezes from the Pacific Ocean temper the Chilean sun, the Casillero del Diablo Pinot Noir Reserva is a bright and elegant expression of this delicate grape. This wine carries the legacy of one of the wine world's most famous legends: in the late 19th century, founder Don Melchor de Concha y Toro spread the rumor that the devil himself guarded his private cellar to deter thieves. Today, this Pinot Noir is crafted to showcase fresh red berry aromas, such as strawberries and raspberries, complemented by subtle hints of toasted French oak from brief aging. It offers a well-structured palate with soft tannins and a refreshing acidity that reflects its coastal-influenced terroir.
🍾 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.
