Lapostolle Grand Selection Carmenere 2023

Lapostolle Grand Selection Carmenere 2023 is a fresh and fruit-forward expression of Chile's signature variety, designed for immediate enjoyment. Sourced from the Rapel Valley, this vintage highlights the grape's characteristic spice and smooth texture. It presents a deep purple colour and an expressive bouquet of ripe blackberries and plums, accented by notes of red bell pepper, black pepper, and subtle hints of chocolate. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and remarkably round, showcasing soft, velvety tannins and a juicy core of dark fruit that leads to a clean, spiced finish.

91 Points - James Suckling

A lovely carmenere that shows aromas of ripe, vibrant fruit with subtle herbs and spices. Nicely chewy on the palate, with a medium body and very firm tannins. Good length and vibrancy.
