Description
Aged in oak barrels. Casillero del Diablo has created a unique Chardonnay with grapes from the Casablanca Valley. The vineyards receive the cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean, and develop a mineral style due to the unique composition of its soils. The soils in the Limarí Valley lend an elegant mineral touch to the Chardonnay, while Casablanca contributes fruit flavors, such as peaches.
