Lapostole Clos Apalta Le Petit Clos 2020

" Casa Lapostolle's Cuvée Alexandre range and the single-vineyard Clos Apalta count among the most impressive wines produced in South America." - Wine Searcher

The second wine from Clos Apalta, the 2020 Le Petit Clos, was produced with the grapes from younger vines and in a different proportion than in the grand vins; it's a blend of 40% Carmenere, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot from their granite soils in the warm Apalta valley from a warm and ripe year. The wine has the lush and ripe signature, with 15% alcohol, decadent and showy, with a nose of violets and camphor, ripe berries, herbs and spices and integrated oak.
