  3/14/2022 - Eudemis Likes this wine:

  14% alcohol. G, S, Mrvdr, Crgn, Cnslt in equal proportions. Top class long dense cork with no wine penetration. Medium ruby colour.
  The nose is very appealing with liquorice and violet; classy and vibrant, I could sniff this all day. The mouth is in the same mould, definitely red fruited and with a winning juicy quality. Nothing heavy here.
  Did not quite stand up to beef Bourguignon (but what does?); much better on its own afterwards, and I am basing this note on the last glass (or two).
  Very successful. An object lesson on how a wine can be fulfilling without being overly concentrated; in the same spirit as the best Etna wines.
  Terrasses du Larzac rarely disappoints in my experience.
  PS: the next day (after a night in the fridge, re-corked), the wine is still in pristine condition.

  Au domaine
  j’ai eu un coup de cœur pour ce Caminarem étonnamment abordable et beaucoup plus ouvert que Nuit Grave. Même la couleur était moins sombre. Le vin est super ouvert, prêt, délicieux, gourmand sur les fruits rouges et noirs. Il va peut-être rentrer dans une phase de fermeture, mais en l’état, c’est assez irrésistible. D’ailleurs j’ai pris 6 bouteilles, alors que je devais arrêter d’acheter vu que je n’ai pas de petite fille née en 2018 ...
