Community Tasting Note

  • HandmadeHomemade Likes this wine:

    November 15, 2021 - Nascent. This is beyond infanticide (abortion?). The wine is so energetic, aggressive and bombastic- it's really lost on itself, but it's great. After a day of being open do I get pithy lemon, mineral, kefir lime leaves, some almond paste, with some atomic warhead candy acidity. This doesn't need "a bit of time" this needs years (more so than I've seen in the past 5-6 vintages of Cameron). So intense, vibrant, and young.

    I love it.

    11/15/21, 11:07 PM - Have not, looking to though- Cameron's price tag is getting steep...

    If I bought a 6er, I'd say wait 3-5yrs on opening, then give it 5-7 on another, saving the last of the 6pack for the rest.

    Though, its way too young to say. Mayve the 7-10 range will be the sweet spot. Best to buy a few to try
