Dos Almas Apogeo 2016
Apogeo - apogee - literally refers to the farthest distance between the Earth and the Moon or, metaphorically, to the highest point of an endeavour. The ideal name for this wine represents the apex of the Zonin family’s venture in the prestigious wine region of Apalta, combining two centuries of Italian winemaking tradition with this unique Chilean terroir to create a blend of perfect harmony.

Colour

Dark, ruby red.

Bouquet

Aromas of red fruits like cassis mix with peppery and earthy notes. Great complexity in the bouquet.

Flavour

A structured, full-bodied wine with firm, structured tannins, balanced acidity and great complexity. A great wine for long-term ageing.

Pairing

It goes well with grilled steaks, barbecued ribs, lamb chops brushed with spicy barbecue sauces, or well-aged hard or sheep's milk cheeses.
