The Wine
Clos Apalta was created in 1997 as the iconic wine of Domaines Bournet-Lapostolle in Chile with the idea of magnifying the exceptional terroir of Apalta with French expertise. Shaping the vineyard foot by foot, building a state-of-the-art gravity fed winery, the family succeeded in making Clos Apalta one of the most iconic wines in South America.
Tasting notes
Color is intense dark purple red with violet blue edges.
Expressive nose of ripe fruit plums and dry figs, opening towards subtle spices and elegant aromas of clover and sweet spices.
Concentrated in the beginning opening towards a lively mid palate, with a well constructed tannic frame and a very long lasting palate.
