Tasting notes
The 2018 Campo di Camagi is the most overly ripe of these three Cabernet Francs. Super-ripe red cherry, pomegranate, sweet spice and new leather all open up in the glass. Readers should plan on giving the 2018 a good bit of air, as it needs time to come together. For my taste, the 2018 is a bit over-ripe and pruney, while the tannins remain searing, even with aeration. The Magnacosta is 100% Cabernet Franc from a parcel planted on quartz and limestone.

The Tenuta di Trinoro 2018 Campo di Camagi is a pure expression of Cabernet Franc from a two-hectare vineyard site that is farmed to very low yields at no more than six clusters per vine. Only 1,950 bottles were released. Like the others in this three-wine series of single-vineyard expressions, the Campo di Camagi sees a relatively short fermentation at up to 15 days in stainless steel, followed by eight months in new barrique and 10 months in cement. This vintage produces a beautifully lush and sweet bouquet with black cherry and blackberry as the undisputed protagonists. At 16%, you do feel the alcohol content. These sweet fruit aromas cede to pipe tobacco, spice and campfire ash. This wine steps forward in this vintage.
