AWARD-WINNING CHILEAN RED WINE
Vertical Tasting Panel 93 Points
Lapostolle Apalta represents the heart of Lapostolle: French winemaking and blending expertise combined with Chilean terroir at its best.
100% hand-harvested, strict fruit selection by state of the art Vistalys optical sorter. All fermentations were made in stainless steel tanks. The Apalta blend enhances the main characteristics of each variety: from Cabernet Sauvignon, its complexity and elegant structure; from Syrah, its exuberant and attractive aromas; and from the Carmenere, its roundness and spicy expression. 70% of the blend was aged for 12 months in a mix of new and second use French oak barrels. The wine was clarified and a very light filtration was done the previous bottling.
Intense and deep red color with violet edges; Elegant, fine and well-balanced nose with black fruits such as blackberry and black spicy aromas; Palate has a silky attack followed by red and black fruit, coffee and chocolate flavors with good tannins delivering a very good structure.
