A welcoming nose of ripe black fruits such as cassis and plum, dark chocolate, black tea leafs, and bell pepper. The palate is warm and deep, and velvety, with a taste echoing the nose. Polished tannins and long sweet finish. The bell pepper note might be a turn off for some, but I like it a lot here.
From vines dating back to 1945 that are genetically different (hence massal selection, as opposed to a single clone). Casa Lapostolle used to buy the grapes for the Clos Apalta bottling. — 5 years ago

Wonderful, unctuous texture, not overly alcoholic, complex aromas of grapefruit, honey and citrus peel, with a tinge of earthiness. Just missing a hint of acidity to be outstanding. — 8 years ago

Wine is young bit already impressive. I would wait a few more years, but if you are anxious like me, you won’t be deceived. Carmenere at its best, round and rich in tanins with a kittle berry aftertaste.

A spectacular Chilean Carmenère presenting a nice nose, deep purple color, with blackberry, cherry and plum tastes. This is an outstanding full bodied and lush wine with soft intergated tannins was the star of a 90+ night. Perfect with grilled lamb this wine is sure to please Cheers 🍷 — 6 years ago

Wonderful Bourdeaux type blend from Chile. This is one of the top wines produced by this Country. It is a joint venture between Baron Phillipe Rothschild who also owns Mouton Rothschild in France; and Viña Concha y Toro from Chile.
The Wine maker, Michel Friou, is French with extensive experience including stints at Chateau Margaux and the other top Wine maker in Chile: Casa Lapostolle, which is owned by the Grand Marnier family in France. There he was in charge of blending their top Cuvée, Clos Apalta.
The 2009 Almaviva, is a powerful red which is well balanced with subtle hints of graphite, chocolate and tobacco. The fruity component reminds me of black cherries. Tannins are present but mild. — 7 years ago
