Wal-Mart and wine; ok, it didnt roll off my tongue at first either; Kind of like 7-11 and wine. But, It’s there. And they”re big. Walk past the tomatoes, past the craftsmen power saws and there it is; the Welcome Wagon of wine Wal-Mart style!
Hometown super-duper wine selection right in your neighborhood!
In my mission to find some hidden gem’s at the local Wal-Mart here in FL , I came across this Chilean Cab. Sauv for under $10.
Concha y Toro’s Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 from Chile was a mere $8.97.
This Chilean beauty proved me wrong! It’s earthy, cigar box and dark chocolate notes made my mouth water for a char-grilled steak.
Make sure to let this new world beauty breathe & decant for a few, it got so much better by the third, um, I mean second glass…:-P
Watch this to see how the “Devil” got in my glass and what Casillero del Diablo means ! 
Cheers!
PS follow me ALL year long when I post next January my OFFICIAL Hidden Gem Wines List from Wal-Mart to see who makes the cut! Who knows this Chilean could be at the bottom!?
