Score 96/100 · Drink 2021-2031, Owen Bargreen, Oct 2021

The 2018 Camaspelo is a sensational blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc with just a touch of Tempranillo. Right out of the glass, it displays an overt and exotic bouquet. Black cherry cordial, potpourri, garrigue, and nori tones all mingle together. The palate is utterly seamless throughout the drinking experience, with wet stone character alongside fine-grained tannins and a beautiful core of dark fruits. The sense of balance here is exquisite.

Elegant yet dynamic, with expressive wild berry, licorice and toasty spice flavors that glide on the long and savory finish. Drink now through 2030. 395 cases made.

Score 94/100 · Drink 2021-2035, Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate, Jul 2021

Boasting a warm and generous nose that offers firm and expressive aromas of crème de cassis, black plum skin, dark cherry compote and spiced blackberry jus, the 2018 Camaspelo displays elements of resinous purple flowers and brown baking spices in the glass. Full-bodied and with silky tannins, the wine glides across the mid-palate with elegance and ease, leaving juicy flavors of macerating dark berries, cardamom madeleines and plum reduction. The wine has all of its elegance on display and concludes with an elongated finish that begs me back for another sip. The wine rested for 19 months in about 35% new French oak. It has me daydreaming of pan-seared Tomahawk chops. Just over 4,700 bottles produced.

Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Jun 2021

Aromas of plums, currants, dried herbs, tangerine, gravel and spices. It’s full-bodied with silky, firm tannins and bright acidity. Intense and savory with rich yet balanced layers. Hints of chocolate at the end. A Bordeaux blend. Drink or hold.
