2009 Clos Apalta

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

93 Points

Thursday, November 17, 2022 - Luis Rides Again! (The Kenwood, Minneapolis, MN): Never had this before, that I can recall, but a very nice wine! Nose shows lots of black and red fruit, mostly currant and cassis, with notes of tar and anise. Palate shows lots of dark fruit wrapped in grippy tannins, with forest floor, herbs and licorice all wrapped in toasted oak. Very nice wine and seems to be an excellent QPR....would like to see how this develops, I think it will improve down the road, pretty darn good now! 93+
