Cayuse, Walla Walla Valley, Camaspelo 2008
Description
Ex-Cellars Library Release Fall 2018
96 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2008 Camaspelo is made up of 80% Cabernet Franc and 20% Merlot. Fresh herbs and spices, earthy minerals, cassis, and black currant aromas lead to an elegant, stylish Catherine Deneuve of a wine. (JM) (8/2011)
95 points Wine Enthusiast
Good concentration, with tight-knit purple and black fruit flavors, a streak of espresso, and the characteristic herb and mineral flavors of the vintage. Very fresh, clean, muscular and still compact, with concentrated blackberry fruit that pops up and broadens out in the finish. (PG) (11/2011)
