Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The Camille is a Merlot-centric Bordeaux blend, dense, liquorous, smoky, and loaded with chocolaty goodness—a truffle in a bottle. Flavors recall the most exotic bottlings from Spain—dense and liquorous, with concentrated raspberry, black cherry fruit, lots of chocolate, smoke and spice.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Juicy and tart, with a background of grapefruit and pineapple behind tangy, clean berry fruit. It’s concentrated and shows a nice streak of graphite and stone, smoke and chalk. This wine needs plenty of bottle time and breathing time.

Nicholas Cole Syrah - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is half estate-grown Sangiovese but done in a Super Tuscan style with half the wine comprised of Cabernet and other Bordeaux reds. Soft, smooth, silky and lush, it’s loaded with black fruits and new oak accents of toasted nuts, butter, caramel and chocolate. It’s seductive and warm, forward and immediately appealing, yet built to age.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here is the quintessential Nicholas Cole—the first wine from the estate vineyard, with a blend that is, for the first time, Cabernet-based. It’s dark, chewy, dense, tense and deeply compact, with layers of blackberry compote, and lingering flavors that meld smoke, fruit and acid in perfect proportion. A big wine in a big bottle, for those who want their reds no holds barred.
