Chile MasterClass with Lapostolle
Join us for an exclusive masterclass with Ronnie Janssen, Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations at Chile's Domaines Bournet Lapostolle, as he takes us on a journey through the heritage, philosophy, and exceptional craftsmanship of Lapostolle Winery.
Founded in 1994 by Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle and Cyril de Bournet after discovering a unique clos in the Apalta Valley sheltering 100-year-old pre-phylloxera vines, Lapostolle has become one of Chile’s most celebrated estates. Today, Charles de Bournet, seventh-generation heir, and Andrea León, Technical Director & Winemaker, continue the family’s vision of creating exceptional wines using French tradition and Chile’s superb terroirs.
At Lapostolle, sustainability is at the heart of everything. The estate vineyards are organically and biodynamically farmed, the fruit is hand-harvested, and hundreds of hectares of native Chilean flora are protected to enhance biodiversity. From composting grape skins and stalks to natural water treatment and energy-saving practices, the winery works in harmony with the land—earning the Wines of Chile Sustainability Certification in 2022.
Guests will enjoy a guided tasting of Lapostolle’s elegant and expressive portfolio—from vibrant Sauvignon Blancs to iconic reds like the world-renowned Clos Apalta, showcasing Lapostolle’s philosophy: French in essence, Chilean by birth.
