Clos Apalta 2014 stands out as a luminous example of Chile’s Colchagua Valley, where the unique terroir imparts a remarkable depth and complexity to the wine. This blend of primarily Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, and Merlot has garnered a perfect score of 100 points from James Suckling, a testament to its extraordinary quality and finesse. On the palate, it unveils layers of dark fruit, such as black currants and ripe plums, intertwined with hints of cocoa, tobacco, and subtle spice. The velvety texture and well-integrated tannins create a harmonious finish that lingers beautifully. Ideal for a special celebration or a cozy dinner featuring grilled lamb or rich chocolate desserts, this wine delivers well beyond its peers, making it a smart buy for the quality.
