Lapostolle Clos Apalta Red Blend

Wine Spectator #6 Top 100 2025 Wines! 75% Carmenere, rounded out with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon Aromatically complex and intriguing, this offers a spiced plum pastry note that melds with petrichor, pine, dried violet and cocoa powder elements. The palate is round and richly textured, with Szechuan peppercorn accents to the concentrated black cherry, plum and cassis center. Everything comes together harmoniously on the finish and lingers, with present but integrated tannins. A stunner that should develop nicely in the cellar. Carmenère, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2040. 1,500 cases imported.
