The wines, unsurprisingly, marry the natural benevolence for which Chile is so famous, with an elegance and subtlety, which has been nurtured by Bordelais wine-making guru, Michel Rolland. The elegance and complexity is underlined by blending; their Cab. Sauvignon contains 15% Malbec that refines the tannic structure and adds a savoury backdrop to the generous fruit.
Casa Lapostolle is most renowned for the outstanding quality of its Merlot. This is Michel Roland's signature grape and is also the most successfully grown grape in the Colchagua valley. The Merlot Cuvée Alexande is a rich, dense and opulent wine that is packed with succulent, ripe, black fruits with hints of chocolate and Asian spices.
