Concha Y Toro Casillero del Diablo Reserva Privada Cabernet Syrah 2011

Winemaker's Notes:

Tiefes, intensives Rubinrot. Aromen nach roten Kirschen und Pflaumen, roten Beeren, Pfeffer und Gewürzen. Die Lagerung im Barriques verleiht ihm Aromen nach Vanille und Toast. Im Geschmack geschmeidig, elegant, gut strukturiert, gut ausgewogen mit feinen Tanninen.

Concha Y Toro Casillero del Diablo:

Casillero del Diablo is a label produced by Concha y Toro Winery in Maipo Valley, Chile. Legend has it that in the early 1890s, winery founder Don Melchor went to his cellar to discover several of his best wines had gone missing. Hoping to ward off more thieves, he spread the rumor that this must have happened because a devil lived in his cellar, hence the name, which translates to “the devil’s cellar.” The first wines branded Casillero del Diablo were produced by Concha y Toro in 1953 and became an international success by the 1960s. The devil icon became a part of the packaging starting in the 1990s. The portfolio is now under the direction of winemaker Marcelo Papa. The wines are available in many styles and varietals of dry reds and whites, plus rosés and sparkling wines. Many of these considered terrific values for their pricepoints. Read less

The presence of the fruit is remarkable thanks to the lively acidity, allowing notes of blackberries, cassis and figs to flourish. The tannins are strong but thanks to the barrel aging they end being round and long. The end palate is complex with flavors of the barrels like brown sugar and spices. Owing to the blend, this wine is versatile for food paring. From different cuts of red meat, to lamb, goat, duck and veal. Meat with a good quantity of fat/grease is recommended due to the high presence of tannins that harmonize perfectly with the composition of the meat (fat/grease and proteins). Mature cheeses are equally recommended above all if they are used in sauces. ~ The Winery ~
