Product Notes

Lapostolle Cuvée Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied and robust wine that exudes elegance and complexity. Made from 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Syrah grapes sourced from the prestigious Apalta Vineyards in Chile, this wine boasts a deep ruby hue and intense aromas of cassis, blackberry, and black cherry, complemented by hints of vanilla, spices, and tobacco. On the palate, it is rich, velvety, and well-structured with firm tannins, bright acidity, and a long, satisfying finish. It pairs well with grilled meats, hearty stews, or mature cheese. It is a great wine to cellar, as it can age gracefully for up to 15 years.

About the Winery

You can understand the essence and culture of Lapostolle Wines when you read the brand’s tagline – French by essence, Chilean by birth. Established in 1994 by Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle and her husband Cyril de Bournet, this label’s main aim was to spread the wine-rich terroirs of Chile to the world. The seed for starting this label was sown when the couple visited the beautiful Chilean valley of Colchagua. The soil, terroir and the climatic conditions of this place were too good to grow premium-quality vines here.
