Description

Firriato Camelot 2007 (92pts WA)
The oddly named "Camelot" cuvee is an impressively smooth and rich Cabernet Merlot blend, rated 92 points by Antonio Galloni whilst he was still at the Wine Advocate. He wrote:
"The 2007 Camelot (Cabernet, Merlot) offers up dark, sensual fruit along with grilled herbs, minerals, cassis, mint and French oak that add layers of complexity. This voluptuous, full-bodied Sicilian red delivers tons of pleasure in a soft, harmonious style. Today the oak is a little prominent, but not excessively so. In another few years the wine should be firing on all cylinders. That said, it is impressive even today. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022."

Carlo Pellegrino Duca di Castelmonte "Tripudium" 2003
As the name suggests, this is a three way blend - of Nero d'Avola, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
This has aged very nicely indeed. It still offers rich primary fruit but also a plush velvetty texture with no hard edges.
