Manchester United have extended their deal with winemaker Concha y Toro by a further three years.
United’s partnership with Chile’s leading wine producers stretches back to 2010, and will now run up to 2019.
Concha y Toro’s global partnership with United was the first ever wine deal in English football. The partnership has been built around its iconic Casillero del Diablo brand. The limited-edition Manchester United Legendary Wine Collection has enjoyed a lot of success since it was launched in 2014, and has seen over 300,000 bottles sold.
Manchester United Group Managing Director Richard Arnold said: “Long-standing relationships are very important to us and Casillero del Diablo is at the heart of our family of global partners, and a natural part of our fabric too.
“As it has become a familiar part of the Old Trafford and Manchester United experience; its success and growth has helped people around the world see its true quality and helped put Chilean wine on the map.”

The corporate marketing director of global brands at Concha y Toro, Cristobal Goycoolea, commented: “Casillero del Diablo and Manchester United share the pillars of history, tradition and values, and these three characteristics have made this alliance a true global success.
“We are very proud to renew our contract, and it motivates us to continue working the way we always have.”
