From the moment you pour it into your glass, you will be struck by its deep and inky purple red robe with dark blue edges, which is a testament to the wine’s intensity and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose of this wine is equally impressive, with a complex and multi-layered bouquet of intense, spicy notes that overlap with red and black fruit, and cedar notes. It is a true feast for the senses that will leave you wanting more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, Clos Apalta 2018 is simply outstanding. The elegant tannins open up to reveal a mid-palate that combines finesse and concentration, which is round and fresh. The wine is perfectly balanced, with a beautiful harmony between its fruit and acidity, and a subtle hint of oak that adds to its complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCritic Ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Parker Wine Advocate Review –\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublished 31st Aug 2021\u003c\/em\u003e – Rated 96:There is a lot of Carmenere character on the nose of the 2018 Clos Apalta, which was produced with 64% Carmenere, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, a blend that is similar to the one used in 2016. The wine is not shy at all and hits the scale at 15% alcohol. It’s showy, heady, hedonistic, aromatic, full-bodied and lush with abundant velvety tannins and a long and powerful finish where the notes of black peppercorns and tea and tobacco leaves dominate. This might not be a wine for everybody, but fans of the style will love it. 92,748 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2020. – Luis Gutiérrez\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Suckling Review –\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublished February 3, 2022\u003c\/em\u003e – Rated 98:So aromatic and fresh with dried flowers, sweet tobacco and hints of straw. Red fruit, cloves and green peppercorns. Medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins that are very fresh and refined. Fine, silky and beautiful. Hints of minerals and granite to the dark fruit. Such gorgeous length and beauty. 64% carmenere, 18% cabernet franc and 18% merlot. Extremely long and poised. Cooler wine. From biodynamically grown grapes. Delicious to drink already, but another three to four years will make it even better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWinery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClos Apalta\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColchagua Valley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrape Varietal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBordeaux Blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750 ML\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWine Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003csection data-liuqs-content=\"verified-context\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"site-brand-context\"\u003eListed by \u003cstrong\u003eFlowers by Richard NYC | Same Day Flower Delivery NYC\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"site-context-note\"\u003eFree Shipping on All Orders · New Store Launch Deals End in 30 Days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"verified-product-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVendor:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Skincare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42986777378901,"sku":"cs_2124","price":7.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9630\/0117\/files\/b9fr9kacx5ez_0293c2ae-e28b-4efb-92ff-2b90e86f2e82.jpg?v=1789267103","url":"https:\/\/willowcreekspirits.com\/products\/closapalta2018-750ml-x0s64d","provider":"Willow Creekspirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
