Camartina 2015 Agricole Querciabella

Professional reviews

James Suckling (95)

this is very racy and firm on the palate, yet the exotic and wild fruit of the beautiful vintage comes through. Medium-to full-bodied with an intense finish. Needs a few years to soften. Cabernet sauvignon and sangiovese. Better in 2020. From biodynamically grown grapes and vegan.

Robert Parker (94)

This is a finely streamlined wine that emphasizes freshness and linearity despite the more robust fruit profile so easily obtained in this warm and sunny vintage. Made with organic fruit, the Querciabella 2015 Camartina is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a smaller part Sangiovese. That this wine is so elegantly subdued comes as an unexpected and appreciated surprise, especially if you plan a meat pairing with fragrant herbs such as wild sage or rosemary.

Though somewhat tight, this red exhibits plenty of ripe fruit, sweet spices and refined tannins. The overall balance is there, and this is nearing a new phase in its evolution. The long, fruit-filled aftertaste picks up a saline element. Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.
