Casillero del Diablo Viognier 
Chile After being on the brink of extinction in 1965, this variety, a native grape of the French Rhône Valley, has seen a steady increase in its production to the point where it now stands as competition for the ever-classic Chardonnay. This is an aromatic wine, delicate in mouth but also characterful, with intense flavor -mostly defined by its apricot and peach notes- and low acidity. | Appellation | Casablanca Valley. |
