The Dos 2010 is a 50-50 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The nose is rather foursquare and lacks a little personality. The palate is smooth and oaky with a savory finish, but it lacks character and tension. Drink now-2015.
Rafael Cambra established his bodega in 2001 when he acquired a parcel of un-grafted 50-year old Monastrell vines located at 650 meters, that he augmented with some high-density plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. He is a winemaker who has adopted a minimal intervention policy and ages the wines in 500 liter French oak barrels. The wines are neither fined nor filtered. These good wines are sometimes let down by a lack of synergy between varieties, as if two people are dancing to different tunes.
