TASTING NOTE: Lapostolle was founded in 1994 by Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle (whose family founded and own Grand Marnier) and her husband, Cyril de Bournet. Their dream was and is to create world-renowned wines from the unique, remarkable terroir they found in Chile. Their 2015 Grand Selection Cabernet Sauvignon is a fantastic value that suggests generous dark berry tones with depth and complexity. Tangy and long with framing tannins, it will be a good option for burgers or grilled ribs. (Vintages panel, Feb. 2017) Price $ 15.95
