What CAM X wine are you drinking tonight?

Sooooooo

I was gifted a nice selection of early CamX wines and have already opened a few. Decided to open Lot 1 tonight:

First off, it’s interesting that the Diam 5 did not have an X on top like all of the other bottles I received . . .

Also interesting to see a Diam 5 on these - one might surmise that these are not meant to be laid down for a long time based on this? Just an observation.

The first pour is dark - very dark. The first notes I get are blue and black fruits and oak - and a touch of alcohol . . . Though this is labeled as 14.0.

I like the acid level in this wine - it keeps it nice and fresh. Tannins are present, but to me on the light side.

Overall it’s a nice drinking wine - and I’d be happy if I had a few bottles of this in my cellar. I have no idea what the ‘value proposition’ is with this wine, but at the same wine retailed for a lot more than $50, I’d be surprised.

Cheers don’t know
