Tasting Note

Apaltagua Gran Reserva Envero Blanc 2020 offers an intense nose characterized by notes of stone fruit, subtle herbaceous undertones, and hints of rubber. On the palate, it presents a smooth, somewhat creamy entry with a backdrop of tropical fruit, reminiscent of a French Rhône white. Floral touches of peach and a subtle, positive bitterness on the finish combine to add depth to this distinct, elegant, and highly flavorful white wine. By Pablo Ugarte
