Clos Apalta Colchagua Valley, Chile 2007

The Apalta Valley had an outstanding harvest in 2007 which is reflected in this magnum bottle of Clos Apalta. A blend of 61% Carmenère, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. The nose is intense and multi-layered, including aromas of spices, black and red fruits, herbs and a touch of led pencil. The palate is rich and fruit-forward, filled with juicy tannins and followed by a long aftertaste.
