Nicholas Cole Camille 2002
Dark and rich, this complex, intense wine offers an expressive nose that suggests dark cherry cordials with a hint of spicy oak complemented by delicate tobacco notes. Deeply textured and concentrated, the dark fruit is explosive on the palate. Well-balanced with fine tannic structure, the finish is long and graceful. This is a very cellar worthy wine and with ageing will continue to develop and evolve. Wine Enthusiast This is the wine formerly known as Claret. The new vintage is still young, grapey, looser and more broadly fruity than the sensational ’01. But what's interesting are layers of ripe fruits, tar, mineral, dark chocolate and chalk. The wine just seems to constantly reveal more of itself as it sits in the glass. Score: 91. —Paul Gregutt, April 01, 2005.Wine Advocate Owner/winemaker Mike Neuffer has fashioned an outstanding wine from a blend of 55% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc. Named after his grandmother, the 2002 Camille reveals a medium to dark ruby color and a mouth-watering nose of cookie dough immersed in sweet red fruits. This medium to full-bodied effort is lush, rich, fruit forward, deep, and crammed with cherries, raspberries, as well as blackberries that linger in its long, suave finish. Anticipated maturity: now-2016. Score: 90. —Pierre Rovani, August 2004. Customers who purchased this item also bought:
