Casa Lapostolle Clos Apalta 2020

94 pts Wine Spectator
“Offers a wealth of ripe blueberry and blackberry flavors, as well as notes of black currant, with good concentration but also a touch of grace, as the midpalate acidity reveals a sublayer of herbs de Provence and white pepper. This flexes a bit on the finish around persistent yet well-integrated tannins that have a slight chalky tinge, but maintains its elegance and form on the lengthy finish. Carmenère, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2038. 9,725 cases made, 500 cases imported.”

“A Carménère-focused blend, with a fair percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon and smaller amounts of Merlot and Petit Verdot, is the winery’s top wine. The nose is very expressive, with rich notes of baking spice and dark fruit. It’s full-bodied, displaying delicate vanilla bean and chocolate-covered plums and dark cherries. A satin texture and optimal freshness lengthen its fruit flavors through the finish.”
