As a general winemaking philosophy, in our Cuvée Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon we look for elegance, balance and ageing potential. To express the terroir of Apalta is our mission; so, our winemaking philosophy remains very natural a process with minimal intervention. Our key points are 100% hand harvest in small cases of 14 kilos, strict fruit selection by 85% optical state of the art grape selection, Vistalys and 15% hand de-stemming of the grapes. Gentle extraction methods and a judicious use of oak to preserve the fruit but integrate the complexity that a wine of this quality deserves.
 

Apalta is located 170 Kilometres South West of Santiago in the Colchagua Valley. The Vineyard is situated on a North to South exposure, which is quite rare in Chile.  Apalta has special meso- climate that is different from the rest of Colchagua Valley. Its climate could be described as semi- arid Mediterranean; with a winter only rainy season and a long dry summer season.
