Accolades

March 2003 Score: 3 stars, Finca Alma Alhue Sauvignon Blanc/Chardonnay 2002, "The mouth has a good correspondence to the nose, it is intense, crisp and well balanced with the alcohol. ... A well made wine.", DiWineTaste
October 9, 2002 Rated X, "Alhue (Finca Alma), 2001 Sauvignon Blanc-Chardonnay, Mendoza Region - Argentina $9.50, Drew Carey feelin' zestfully clean - crisp, fresh and a bit fleshy.", Wine X Magazine
September 22, 2002 "[Monte Xanic's] stiffest competition comes from up the road at Chateau Camou, founded in 1994. The winemaker at Camou, Victor Torres, learned his trade at the University of Bordeaux and has 16 years experience. It shows in a good fume blanc, among his other wines.", Tim Weiner, The New York Times, Mexico Cultivating New Wine Industry
May 15, 2002 Chateau Camou Flor de Guadalupe 1997 Zinfindel: "Certainly Mexico's best winery and quite possibly one of the best on the West Coast.", Richard Kinssies, Seattle Times, On Wine: Zinfindel's appeal is still unexplained
January 2001 Chateau Camou Flor de Guadalupe 1997 Zinfindel: "Certainly Mexico's best winery and quite possibly one of the best on the West Coast.", Richard Kinssies, Seattle Times, On Wine: Zinfindel's appeal is still unexplained
2000 Chateau Camou, Vinas de Camou 1996 El Gran Vino Tinto, "This wine won a silver medal at Vinexpo in France... and it's easy to see why! A Bordeaux-style blend of cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and merlot, this one's got floral aromas accented with berries, vanilla, coffee and cassis. Translation: Yum! Much lighter in style than many hair-on-the-tongue-inducing Bordeaux wines. Fruity and smooth. Best of the bunch.", Wine X Magazine, Yo Quiero Baja Wine
2000 Chateau Camou, Vinas de Camou 1996 Fume Blanc, "Hey, who switched my fume blanc with their viognier! This luscious number is so perfumey and floral you'll swear they mislabeled the bottle. It's rich, weighty and delicious... but don't expect it to taste like any California fume on the market. Try it with spicy food.", Wine X Magazine, Yo Quiero Baja Wine
2000 Chateau Camou, Flor de Guadalupe 1996 Zinfandel, "This old-vine zinfandel smells like ripe red berries. Delicious zin with loads of intense fruit. Aromatic, smooth and alive with strawberry and raspberry flavors. Aged in oak, but not overly woody. Uno mas, por favor! ", Wine X Magazine, Yo Quiero Baja Wine
