Critics Scores

WINE SPECTATOR

Wine Spectator

A tightly wound version, with black cherry, blueberry, tobacco and iron flavors etched into a sleek, tensile texture. Balanced on the tannic side and in need of a grilled steak or lamb. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2021 through 2033.

ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The vineyard that produces the fruit used in the 2015 Bolgheri Rosso Camarcanda has more limestone than elsewhere in the area and has very white soils as a result. (The soils are treated with compost to darken them and to keep them balanced.) This wine is tight and compact, showing good backbone, complexity and intensity as a result of the terre bianche, or those white soils. The 2015 vintage is particularly fruity, sweet and succulent, with a delineated minerality in the mouth. The wine spends 18 months in oak.

JAMES SUCKLING

James Suckling

A very fresh nose with notes of lavender, herbs, licorice and nutmeg. Medium to full body, a really driven line of acidity and a long, very taut finish. Wood shows at the end. Needs two or three years to soften. Better in 2020.

The flagship under this label is the Camarcanda and the 2015 is 80 Cabernet Sauvignon and 20 Cabernet Franc that spent 18 months in barrel. It offers a more serious, inward style in its darker currants, tobacco leaf, graphite, menthol, and licorice aromas and flavors. It too is incredibly refined and elegant, with medium body, moderate yet silky tannins, and just beautiful all-around balance and harmony. It’s going to benefit from short-term cellaring and drink beautifully for 10-15 years.
