Ripe fruit aroma, mild acidity and freshness, characterize this variety that can be kept in barrel. In Casillero del Diablo we have created a unique Chardonnay, where its grapes from the Casablanca Valley receive the fresh South Pacific breezes, while developing a mineral style thanks to the unique composition of the soils.
Denomination of Origin
Limarí
VINEYARD
Casillero del Diablo Chardonnay comes from vineyards located a few kilometers from the Pacific Ocean coast. The constant breezes from the sea moderate temperatures in the area, delivering a marked freshness to this variety. The soils of the Limarí Valley give it nice and elegant mineral touches to this Chardonnay, while Casablanca brings fruity touches, especially peach.
