Casa Apostolle Clos Apalta 1999
Est. £80-100 (+fees)
Introducing Clos Apalta – from the forthcoming auction: Fine and Rare Wines and Spirits, 26th October; consignments close: 14th September.
A Chilean wine from Colchagua Valley, Clos Apalta Valle de Apalta may be lesser known – in comparison to say Bordeaux’s Château Lafite Rothschild – but, Clos Apalta is often talked about as being one of the world’s greatest red wines. Intense in colour and with a long, velvety finish, its flavours have been likened to kirsch and chocolate.
