Tasting Notes

The Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon delivers a powerful expression of cassis, embodying the essence of the Central Valley’s terroir. Rich aromas of cherries and plums are beautifully enhanced by subtle barrel ageing, where toasted oak and coffee notes add further complexity. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, providing a smooth and refined mouthfeel. The wine finishes with a long, ripe fruit and berry aftertaste, maintaining an impressive balance between fruit-forward flavours and polished tannins. This Cabernet is an exquisite pairing for red meats, well-seasoned dishes, and aged cheeses like Gruyère or blue cheese.
