Clos Apalta & Cuvée Alexandre: the benchmark for high-end Chilean wines from the Apalta Valley

Casa Lapostolle: a leading name in Chilean fine wine

Founded in 1994 by Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle and Cyril de Bournet, Casa Lapostolle stands among the most distinguished estates in the world of premium Chilean wine. Guided by a philosophy rooted in biodynamic viticulture and meticulous precision, the estate crafts wines that embody the purity of fruit, the depth of Chile’s finest terroirs and an unwavering sense of elegance.

Apalta: one of Chile’s great terroirs

Nestled in the heart of the Colchagua Valley, the amphitheatre-shaped Apalta vineyard is considered one of Chile’s most exceptional terroirs. Casa Lapostolle cultivates vines aged up to 80 years and beyond, rooted on steep, well-exposed hillsides with granite-derived soils, ancient alluvial deposits and colluvial slopes. This diverse geological structure confers remarkable concentration, a distinctive mineral freshness and an outstanding aging potential.

Clos Apalta – the flagship wine

A true icon of Chilean winemaking, Clos Apalta is recognised worldwide for its depth, precision and longevity. Crafted predominantly from Carmenère, with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the wine delivers a dense, velvety texture, profound black-fruit character and layers of spice and graphite. Frequently praised by international critics, it offers a rare capacity for long-term aging and holds a privileged place in the cellars of discerning collectors.

Cuvée Alexandre – purity, balance and refined expression

The Cuvée Alexandre range, produced in both red and white, offers a more immediate but equally sophisticated interpretation of Casa Lapostolle’s terroirs. Defined by precise aromatics, fine tannins and a beautifully controlled élevage, these wines showcase the estate’s signature elegance while remaining accessible in their youth.

Why add Casa Lapostolle to a fine-wine cellar?

Combining biodynamic farming, old-vine material and precision-driven winemaking, Casa Lapostolle offers a refined and authentic interpretation of the Apalta Valley. Both Clos Apalta and Cuvée Alexandre are essential selections for enthusiasts wishing to explore the most accomplished expressions of high-end Chilean wine.

Whether expanding a curated collection or discovering the new elite of South American wine, Casa Lapostolle provides wines of precision, depth and enduring elegance—a benchmark for any premium cellar.
