Michael Grimm

Der Clos Apalta 2019 ist ein Wein von fast schon extremer Fruchtkonzentration, sowohl dicht und intensiv als auch samtig. Die reife und facettenreiche Nase des Weins enthüllt Aromen von Pflaumen, Heidelbeeren und Brombeeren, begleitet von Pfeffer, Tabak, Rosmarin, Zigarrenkiste und einem Hauch von Rauch. Am Gaumen zeigt sich ein aromatisches Profil von Lakritze, schwarzen und roten Johannisbeeren, untermalt von Noten von Graphit, Nelke und Zimt. Die eindrucksvolle Struktur der Tannine und des Holzes sorgen für eine hervorragende Ausgewogenheit auf höchstem Niveau: Fülle und Frische verbinden sich zu einer seidigen Textur. Die Carménère-Traube macht diesen Wein nahezu einzigartig in seiner Preisklasse. Ein moderner, authentischer Wein mit delikaten Aromen!

The 2018 Clos Apalta is 64% Carménère, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot from Apalta, Colchagua, aged for 24 months in 85% new barrels. The ripe, complex, clear nose offers prune, blueberries and blackberries along with pepper, tobacco, rosemary, cigar box and a whiff of smoke. Creamy and broad in the mouth with good volume, a firm flow and contained structure. The tannins set the tone while the mellow freshness underlines the sugary profile. A genuine Michel Rolland wine made during a year of subtle flavors.

So aromatic and fresh with dried flowers, sweet tobacco and hints of straw. Red fruit, cloves and green peppercorns. Medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins that are very fresh and refined. Fine, silky and beautiful. Hints of minerals and granite to the dark fruit. Such gorgeous length and beauty. 64% carmenere, 18% cabernet franc and 18% merlot. Extremely long and poised. Cooler wine. From biodynamically grown grapes. Delicious to drink already, but another three to four years will make it even better. (2022)

Wine Spectator

93 POINTS

Displays a rich and ripe profile of plum and berry accented by mineral acidity and notes of singed alder and cinnamon bark, adding toasted herb notes that linger on the finish around fine tannins and details of kirsch. Carmenère, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best after 2024. 7,729 cases made, 350 cases imported.

Parker – Wine Advocate

96 POINTS

There is a lot of Carmenere character on the nose of the 2018 Clos Apalta, which was produced with 64% Carmenere, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, a blend that is similar to the one used in 2016. The wine is not shy at all and hits the scale at 15% alcohol. It's showy, heady, hedonistic, aromatic, full-bodied and lush with abundant velvety tannins and a long and powerful finish where the notes of black peppercorns and tea and tobacco leaves dominate. This might not be a wine for everybody, but fans of the style will love it. 92,748 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2020.
