Casillero del Diablo Merlot – 750ML

TP 90

This native of Bordeaux, France is elegant by nature, featuring smooth tannins and expressing freshness and sweetness. In its Merlot, Casillero del Diablo captured all this elegance in a smooth wine with low astringency and aromas of blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries, complemented by notes of chocolate, vanilla, and blackcurrants.

Tasting Notes

Subtle aromas of chocolate, dark plums, red berries and spices, with hints of vanilla and smoke. Medium-bodied, with lovely tannins, velvety texture, rich and a long, pretty finish.

Serving Suggestion

A great match to pasta, risotto, lightly spiced red meats, soft cheeses and Mexican food.

Tasting Panel

90 points // The price point is a big surprise, as this iconic Chilean wine offers abundant character and a liveliness of style. Ripe blueberry and aromatic floral notes lead to a fresh, easygoing quaff, with black tea and red plum interspersed with pomegranate. Roses continue to exude perfume as bright acidity keeps the palate lighthearted.
