Apaltagua Grial Carmenere 2007
90+ points
“Rather suave on entry, then firmer in the middle, with a subtly perfumed quality to the black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors. Finishes smoky and long, with sweet tannins. Impressively deep and harmonious.”
Apaltagua Envero Carmenere 2008
89 points
“Smokier and more brooding than the Reserva, showing dark berry and cured meat qualities and a sexy floral note. Broad, sappy blackcurrant and licorice pastille flavors. Tannins arrive on the firm, spicy, nicely persistent finish.”
Apaltagua Reserva Carmenere 2008
88 points
“Sappy redcurrant and black cherry flavors are framed by silky tannins that become firmer with air. The finish features a bitter cherry quality and lingers with very good spicy persistence.”
Apaltagua Reserva Chardonnay 2009
88 points
“Fresh and juicy, with penetrating acidity adding cut to the bitter citrus peel and orchard fruit flavors. A refreshingly brisk, tart style of chardonnay, finishing with notes of ginger and honeysuckle.”

Apaltagua Carmenere Grial 2007
90 points
“A complex and savory wine with rich plum and heavily toasted oak aromas followed by velvety plum fruit flavors, lots of spice, and notes of smoke, tobacco and chocolate. The tannins are soft and round and the finish is long lasting.”
Apaltagua Carmenere Envero 2007
88 points
“This flavorful Carmenere is sourced from 60 year old vines and offers a dark ruby color and a nose of red and black plums and rose petals with a touch of smoke. It has a soft lush attack of tangy dark plum fruit and a distinct bright red fruit note on the finish.”
Apaltagua Reserva Chardonnay 2009
88 points
“The pale straw Apaltagua Chardonnay offers a lot for the price. It has a leesy nose of white flowers and pear and a soft attack of sweet ripe pear with a touch of rose petal.”
