About the wine
Cult wine like Camille's is the reason we have thousands of people on our waiting list.
Camille Benitah, your Angel-funded winemaker, says:
- "Buhman Ranch is a truly unique place. Resting in the hills overlooking Carneros, the slope is ideal for the slow and long maturation of grapes. This brings the bright fruit and aromas typical of a great region to this varietal."
- "Every grape is pulled off the stem and fermented without a hint of green, vegetal material. I ferment the full berries to capture the aromatics and extract optimum flavor and texture from the grape's tannic skins. That's why the mouth is full and round and the finish long and soft."
- "Thanks to Angel funding, I could use my connections to get fruit from premium vineyards from which the wines are usually sold for over $100.00– I'm very proud to offer such a special wine at such a reasonable price."
Best before
I would say let it sit for a couple of years, but that is hard advice to follow! The only hard rule is to enjoy it with good friends.

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.
