Cuvee Alexandre

2013 Valle De Colchagua Carmenere

Lapostolle Direct Cuvée Alexandre is a striking expression of Carmenere, hailing from the esteemed Valle de Colchagua region in Chile. The 2013 vintage showcases a deep red hue that invites you to explore its rich complexity. This medium-bodied wine dazzles with bright acidity that lifts the palate, making each sip exciting and refreshing. The fruit intensity is pronounced, revealing luscious notes of ripe blackberries, plums, and hints of dark chocolate, interwoven with elegant spice. Tannins are notably structured yet approachable, providing a firm backbone while remaining soft and pleasant on the mouth. As a dry wine, it offers a beautiful balance, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own.
