This Cayuse Vineyards Camaspelo is a stunningly complex, yet balanced red Bordeaux blend.On the nose, aromas of black plum, ripe cherry, cassis, and a hint of earthiness combine for a pleasingly fragrant bouquet. On the palate, the wine offers a medley of flavors, including dark cherry, cassis, earthiness and a hint of smoked meat. The tannins are firm but integrated, and the finish is long and lingering.
