| | Arguably one the best 2nd labels made, as well as one of Chile's best values. The Le Petit Clos, from Casa Lapostolle’s Clos Apalta, is a wine you always want to have at home. Not only is it really good, but at $44 it offers great value! Clos Apalta is easily one of the most recognizable and iconic wineries in South America. Le Petit Clos was first introduced in 2014 and has since grown in popularity with both wine drinkers and critics alike. Not hard to fathom as the Le Petit Clos lies at an affordable price point and the wine is of extremely high quality.

| 2021 Clos Apalta Proprietary Red 'Le Petit Clos' |
| | ▪ “Embracing a Bordeaux-style approach, Le Petit Clos is the second wine of Clos Apalta. The 2021 Le Petit Clos combines 68% Carménère, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, all sourced from the Apalta Vineyard in Colchagua. Displaying a purple hue in the glass, it exhibits a ripe character mellowed by the fresh nature of the vintage. It offers plum and blackberry aromas along with bay leaf, boldo and menthol hints over an ashy marmalade core. Indulgent, plush and rich on the palate, the soft and overwhelming mouthfeel lingers long with a precise, juicy and slightly refreshing personality. The 2021 vintage is indeed a standout for Clos Apalta”.
96 Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous, Jul 2024
▪ “A nice touch of baked cherries and dark chocolate to the deep blackberry fruit. Ink and a touch of graphite and dried herbs. Full-bodied and pretty powerful with fine-grained tannins and a long, extensive finish. 68% carmenere, 16% cabernet sauvignon,15% merlot and 1% cabernet franc. Give it two more years to let the fruit settle more. Drink or hold.”.
