Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, elegant and
refined aromas which start with aromas of plum and blueberry followed by
carob, black cherry, raspberry, licorice, black currant and violet as well
as pleasing hints of vanilla and eucalyptus with very balanced wood
aromas. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly
tannic attack however balanced, intense flavors, full body. The finish is
persistent with flavors of plum, blueberry and black cherry. A well made
wine. Camelot ages in barrique for 9 months.
