Concha y Toro Casillero Del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl, 13.5%)

A Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon from Concha y Toro, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The Casillero Del Diablo line draws fruit from multiple Chilean valleys, including Maipo, Rapel and Maule, blending approximately 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Syrah. The name references the winery's original cellar in Pirque, where Don Melchor reportedly spread a legend that the devil guarded his private reserves. The wine shows ripe black currant, dark cherry, cassis and subtle floral tones on the nose, with coffee, light toast and a hint of bell pepper. On the palate it is fruit-forward, with concentrated cherry and blackcurrant, vanilla undertones, dark chocolate and marked but approachable tannins. The finish is moderately long, with slightly chewy tannins, lingering cassis, toasty oak and dried fruit.
