James Suckling: 94 Points
A fresh, spicy carmenere loaded with fruit. Dark cherries, tobacco, pepper, spices and touches of paprika, dark olives, graphite and dark chocolate. Juicy and fruit-expressive on the palate with a medium to full body and fresh, fine-grained tannins. Flavorful and long. Always a great buy for the price. Drink or hold.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2022 Carménère Cuvée Alexandre, sourced from Apalta in the Colchagua Valley, presents a ripe and precise expression. Purple in hue, it exudes soft ash and marmalade aromas with hints of blackberry and boldo. Dry, rich and bold, the voluminous palate is fairly fleshy and reactive due to its muscular, rounded tannins. This is an intense and flavorful Apalta Carménère. Drink: 2024-2032.
