Lapostolle Apalta is the new label produced in the Valle de Apalta to emphasize this amazing terroir.
With a refined winemaking approach and mastery of blending, a complex and expressive wine has been created.
Sourced from Lapostolle vineyards in Apalta, this wine shows a beautiful fruity and spicy expression, followed by an elegant and smooth structure.
It could be considered as the third wine of Clos Apalta.
Clos Apalta is born in 1997 as the iconic wine of the Domaines Bournet-Lapostolle in Chile under the idea to magnify the exceptional terroir of Apalta with French expertise. Shaping the vineyard foot by foot, building a state-of-the-art gravity fed winery, the family succeeded in making Clos Apalta one of the most iconic wines in South America.
The 2019 vintage of Clos Apalta is characterized by a “ripe and warm” growing season that resulted in an intensely concentrated and powerful wine. It is notable for having one of the highest proportions of Carménère (70%) in the estate’s history.
“This was a very luminous, bright and wonderful harvest, that brought us beautiful vivid fruit and deep flavors”. – Andrea Leon, Chief Winemaker.
Made with Organic Grapes and Biodynamic vineyard management.

The Marnier Lapostolle family, founders and owners of the world-renowned liqueur Grand Marnier, has vineyards in three regions of Chile, the oldest plantings being 1920 in the southern Apalta Vineyard brought from France at the end of the 19th Century.
Their mission is to capture the freshness of young and expressive fruit, bright and alive.
These characteristics define the Lapostolle Grand Selection wines.
This Grand Selection Cabernet Sauvignon has flavors of red fruits, strawberries and blackberries, with a concentrated and round palate.
Valle del Rapel is one of the few places where Carménère grows in ideal conditions. It is located in the central part of Chile and it exhibits a semi-arid Mediterranean climate with warm and dry days and pleasantly cool nights during the growing season, as a result of cold breezes coming from the Andes. Rapel has also a cool influence from the Pacificís Humboldt Current, which lowers temperatures in the coastal areas of the valley. This leads to warm days with ample sunlight and dry conditions, allowing a slow ripening period. Carménère is able to fully ripen but maintain all its fresh notes that are so unique to the variety.

The yields in 2021 ended up being generous, and most importantly with grapes that produced wines of excellent quality.
This Grand Selection Sauvignon Blanc comes from a very special area in Cachapoal, directly beneath the foothills of the Andes, and enhances the best fruit that Rapel Valley has to offer. The vines grow with the cold influence of the mountains and express all the minerality of the vineyards unique stony soil: Las Kuras means “stones” in the native language.
The 2024 vintage is considered a cold and late season in Colchagua. The wines show great depth, with elegance and great fruit expression, and remarkable acidity and aging potential.
