Lapostolle Clos Apalta 2010
Bordeaux Red Blends
from Chile, South America
winemaker's notes:
The 2005 vintage of this wine was ranked #1 on the Wine Spectator's Top 10 Wines of 2008
Dark and deep inky purple red color. Still young, but opening on the nose towards ripe and expressive red and black fruit, such as plums, red cherries, dry figs and blueberries. Also, spices such as vanilla, clover and white pepper. With a concentrated structure, this wine has a round and packed attack followed by velvety and polished tannins filling the mid palate and a ripe and rich long lasting finish.
Open and leave to breathe for a couple of hours or carefully decant for minimum 1 hour and enjoy at room temperature; 16 to 18ºC (60 to 65°F). This wine is an ideal companion for game, lamb, and entrecote fillet. Also good with rich cocoa chocolate deserts.
Blend: 71% Carmenere, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot
