Domaines Marnier Lapostolle
Clos Apalta Le Petit Clos Red Blend
Casablanca Valley, Aconcagua, Chile
The second wine from this Chilean producer. Big but not colossal. Nicely balanced. Medium acidity. Bordeaux style. I liked but didn’t love this...a teaser.

NOSE: wet, dark, wormy dirt. Berries - both blackberry and raspberry, like a mix . Slate.
TASTE: quite good - smooth tannins with a little “grain” - nice acidity - lovely black raspberry. Great stuff. I got a killer deal on this. 93.
EDIT: another review noted cedar and that is right.

Outstanding Chilean blend. The carmenaire cab blend is wonderful. This wine will grow in time. Wish I had more.
