Casa Lapostolle Clos Apalta 2019 is a full-bodied Bordeaux blend from the Apalta Valley of Chile. Produced under the guidance of Michel Rolland since its first vintage, in 1997, Clop Apalta combines high proportions of Carmenere with more typical Bordeaux varieties. The 2019 vintage is a blend of 70% Carmenere, 18% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot. The wine was aged for 24 months in 90% new oak barrels. "It’s creamy and juicy, with very high ripeness and a notable absence of herbal notes; it’s oaky, smoky and decadent, coming through as luxurious, round, lush and velvety. It’s full-bodied and has abundant, small and powdery tannins." Luis Gutierrez, 2022

The 2019 Clos Apalta from Apalta, Colchagua, was aged for 24 months in 90% new French barrels. Dark purple in the glass. The complex, nuanced nose offers mild notes of mint, pyrazines, ash and ripe dark fruit such as blackberry and blueberry with hints of undergrowth and tobacco, cedar and other aromas from the aging process. In the mouth, it’s indulgent and compact initially with refined, slightly reactive, young tannins, an expansive flow and a rich palate that delivers herbal flavors before the sustained, fruity finish. The good year has helped to enhance the depth of an already accomplished red with a well-proven ripe style. Joaquin Hidalgo27th September 2022
