Camille Benitah Terre de Feu Lake County Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
About the wine
Silky soft and SO luxurious - how is this Cab only $16?!
- She's made cult Napa Valley reds that sell for $150 a bottle. Now Camille's introducing you to a whole new Cabernet - harvested from a secret region just north of Napa
- Sourced from nutrient-rich volcanic soils, Camille let the grapes hang on the vine until they were perfectly ripe. She wanted to capture every last drop of flavor - and bring you a Lake County wine to remember.
- Camille treated this special Cabernet to all the same luxury as her cult Napa Cabs - but because you made it possible, this extravagant treat is yours for less than $20 a pop!
Best before
3 to 5 years in the cellar will help bring a beautiful and complex bouquet
Serving advice
If opened the year of the release, use a venturi to help the aromas to be more expressive. If you don't have a venturi, simply open the bottle a couple hours prior.
Food match
Grilled meat or veggies, mushroom dishes like a porcini risotto or pommes de terre sarladaises.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Camille Benitah
- Camille learned her craft in Bordeaux, France working at very prestigious Chateaux there. She moved to California and was the winemaker for one of Napa's most sought-out cult wines, Merus ($150 a bottle).
- But like all real artists, Camille wanted to make her own wine, her own way -- and Angels allow her to do just that. She's uncompromising and fiercely protective of her wines every step of the way.
- We didn't hold anything back with Camille. She gets to make her dream wine, no holds barred, and the results are spectacular.
