The 2020 Camarcanda is suave, elegant and wonderfully expressive. Lifted aromatics and silky tannins give Camarcanda tons of finesse. Deceptive in its mid-weight feel, the 2020 is beautifully resonant. Pretty floral and spice notes open the finish effortlessly. The 2020 is without question the finest Camarcanda to date. Bravo.

A preview of what will be released in March 2023, the 2020 Camarcanda is attractive out of the gate and is sweet with its perfume of purple fruits and red currant, violets, menthol, rosemary, and wet stone. It is full bodied, though, and has lift and charming appeal now. While it is ripe and plush with raspberry, crushed red flowers, and sweet cedar, it retains its benchmark notes of saline earth and herbs. This wine is incredibly expressive and delicious now, and I anticipate that will certainly be the case upon release. It will be fantastic to check in on from 2025-2045.

This wine's aromas are a bit muted today, yet the black currant, blueberry, violet, cedar and wild herb flavors are expressive and well-delineated. Gains support from lively acidity and a dense matrix of tannins as this finishes long and palate-staining. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2026 through 2045. 2,000 cases made, 300 cases imported.
