Casa Lapostolle Merlot Cuvée Alexandre 1999

Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileOne of the class acts of Chilean reds rises to the top again in this fine vintage. It combines French reserve, elegance and wonderful Chilean lushness. Look for fine blackberry set in sweet vanilla, tea, and licorice and leather complexity. Full, deep and rich but suave and compact at the same time, with a warm finish. Very good length.
