Espíritu de Apalta Colchagua Valley Carménère Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Memories from when one was able to travel. Fun to drink after visiting - and seeing the 100 year old vines - and unique way of planting and replanting from the same root stock. Vines extend and planted back down into the Ground. Interesting - but not well diversified - if the primary dies, so goes the extended vine... The cab in the blend helps to mellow out the rather austere Carmeniere. Nice dark fruit and a hint of hickory and bramble berry Finish a bit on the short side #neyen — 4 years ago

This #chilean wine is showing well but lacks excitement and complexity. The tannins and alcohol are present. Some fun characteristics came out after a decant. The fruit is black and blue but lacks definition and excitement. #colchaguavalley #espirtudeapalta #chile #carmenere #neyen #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago
