The noticeably more refined barely middle weight flavors exude evident minerality on the delicious and equally refreshing finish

The 2017 Clos Apalta is the 20th vintage of this wine that was produced with a blend of 48% Carmenere

Give it an hour or 2 in the decanter

Henri Boillot, Chambertin other_regions The noticeably more refined barely(near the very top of the vineyard and atypically, the rows are planted North South). Cool but very ripe aromas include notes of mocha, dark berry liqueur, earth and a hint of the sauvage. The sleek, intense and mineral driven broad shouldered flavors manage to display both good richness and delineation on the more overtly austere, compact and sneaky long finale. This is definitely not a candidate for early drinking.
