slow-roast shoulder of lamb

The Story

A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc. The grapes are grown in vineyards planted on white soil which is rich in limestone, firm clay and stones.

The two varieties are fermented and macerated separately for around 15 days. After 12 months of ageing in oak and further 6 months in concrete vessels, they are blended and aged for several months in the bottle before being released.

Written Notes

Deep ruby with a vivid violet rim, reflecting both concentration and youthful energy. The nose is remarkably pure and expressive, opening with blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark cherry, layered with violet, licorice, and a distinctive iron/mineral note. With air, more complex nuances emerge: cedar, Mediterranean herbs, graphite, and a subtle balsamic lift.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet impeccably balanced. The texture is supple and polished, with silky, fine-grained tannins that are already beautifully integrated. There is a notable sense of density and richness, but it is lifted by vibrant acidity that gives precision and drive. The flavor profile combines ripe dark fruit with savory elements—black tea, spice, and a saline-mineral edge—while oak remains seamlessly woven into the structure.

The finish is long, refined, and persistent, marked by purity of fruit, subtle spice, and a lingering mineral tension.


Camarcanda 2021 stands out as a flagship expression of an outstanding vintage—more linear and precise than 2022, and more harmonious and complete than many recent years. It is likely to evolve into one of the estate’s modern classics.
