It opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and plum, layered with notes of cedar, dark chocolate, tobacco leaf, and subtle spice. The palate is generous and supple, offering ripe dark fruit framed by smooth, well-integrated tannins and a velvety texture. A fresh backbone of acidity brings balance and lift, carrying the wine through a long, elegant finish marked by cocoa, spice, and savory herbal nuances. Approachable yet serious, this is a beautifully crafted red that combines richness, harmony, and immediate appeal with the pedigree of Apalta’s top terroirs.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Embracing a Bordeaux-style approach, Le Petit Clos is the second wine of Clos Apalta. The 2021 Le Petit Clos combines 68% Carménère, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, all sourced from the Apalta Vineyard in Colchagua. Displaying a purple hue in the glass, it exhibits a ripe character mellowed by the fresh nature of the vintage.

Indulgent, plush and rich on the palate, the soft and overwhelming mouthfeel lingers long with a precise, juicy and slightly refreshing personality.
