Lapostolle, Cuvee Alexandre Merlot 2022

"This 2022 Merlot Cuvée Alexandre is sourced from Apalta in the Colchagua Valley. It delivers the expected ripe varietal character, with cherry and spices set against a balsamic backdrop. Dry and juicy, with reactive, structured tannins, it leaves a fairly clingy mouthfeel with a lingering balsamic whiff." - Vinous

This Cuvée Alexandre Merlot is sourced from selected parcels of our own vineyards in the famous Apalta Valley. Explosive flavors of cassis, black cherry and dark chocolate complemented by finely integrated oak, the result is a unique wine true to its origin, a classic expression of Merlot. Red fruit aromas such as cherries and strawberry with fresh herbs aromas and a touch of vanilla. Elegant and juicy tannins, with a long finish and well integrated moderate oak flavors.
