Description

A refreshing light-bodied Sauvignon Blanc with zesty peach, citrus fruit and gooseberry flavours

This peach, citrus fruit and gooseberry tinged Sauvignon Blanc is a hell of a wine. Zesty fruit-cocktail flavours collide in your mouth finished with a flourish of zippy acidity. Throw in some freshly-baked bread and cheese for a heavenly ploughmans

This Casillero del Diablo is devillishly good Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. It's a pretty grown up wine, with perfectly-balanced tingly acidity holding together the refreshing flavours of limes, peaches and greengages, but it cries out for simple flavours

More than 100 years ago, Don Melchor de Concha y Toro reserved for himself an exclusive batch of his best wines. To keep strangers away from his private reserve, he spread the rumor that the Devil lived in that place. Hence the name: Casillero Del Diablo, The Devil's Cellar".
