I much prefer the basic Casa Silva #Carmenere over this one. This is deep in color and ripe on the nose and palate, but it has gone too far into wanting to be super silky and super ripe. It has lost the texture and the terroir for me. I also don’t like the milky, creamy diacetyl/lactic finish. Good but not great. #chile #colchagua #colchaguavalley #cordillera — 4 years ago

Opaque. Elevated alcohol on the nose along with med + complexity dominated by black fruit, paprika, and chocolate. Full bodied and silky on the palate. Nicely structured and a fine finish. #montes #carmenere #purpleangel #colchagua #blend #chile #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

16.5/20 (91/100)

Персик, сухсие травы, зеленая дыня, чуть пряно, с хорошей кислотностью, деликатно, изящно. Полный вкус, отлично.

This is my second time tasting this #vintage of #closapalta from #lapostolle No question that this is a huge wine but it is pretty well balanced for an 11 year old #chilean wine with 15% abv. Firm tannins, medium acid, and strong black, blue, and red fruit. After 3 hours exposed to the air the finish on the wine became bitter. I don't have super high hopes for this wine being fully mature but I am definitely intrigued about what could develop. #chile #colchagua #carmenere — 9 years ago
