Note di degustazione
The 2017 Vertice is a 50/50 blend of Carménère and Syrah that spent 22 months aging in 25% new barrels. Garnet in the glass with a violet sheen. The liqueur-like nose is dominated by the aging process, featuring notes of vanilla, tobacco and sweet spices over gentle aromas of blackberry and bay leaf. The palate is similarly dominated by the wood, with active tannins that enhance the already intense palate, while the finish has plenty of juice.

The 2017 Vertice Apalta Vineyard is from a riper and more concentrated crop with lower yields and comes through as riper and rounder, with more fruit and concentration. There is more tannin and more power. Part of the wine now matures in oak foudres, and that is helping with the integration of the oak. 38,000 bottles produced.
