Camensac - Haut-Médoc 2003

Wine Advocate

89 / 100

byRobert Parkerthe4/24/2006

Soft, round, and evolved, the plum/garnet-hued 2003 offers sweet scents of black cherries, plums, and figs, medium to full body, a charming fleshiness, and low acidity. Enjoy this seductive wine over the next 7-10 years.

Aromas of berry, tobacco and hints of wood follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with chewy tannins and a light finish. Very good but not up to much really. Best after 2006. 28,885 cases made.

Deep ruby, quite sweet, ripe, floral fruit, but a touche of greenness on the finish and rather simple style. 2007-2015

A big, solid, masculine-styled effort, Camensac’s deep opaque purple-tinged 2003 offers excellent concentration, heady levels of glycerin and alcohol, fine purity, and a firm, structured, rugged but impressively endowed, muscular finish. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016.

L'honnête matière et des tannins bien présents en font un cru solidement bâti, médocain dans l'âme, un des plus réussis des dernières années, très nettement supérieur au 2002

Très beau camensac. Superbes tannins souples, maginifiques notes de fruit, finale agréable. De facture parfaite, il procurera sûrement du plaisir, d'où ma note élevée. 2006 à 2012

Epicé, note de grillé, fruits mûrs conservant assez de fraîcheur ; bouche souple et ronde, bien garnie, tanins soyeux qui portent une finale nerveuse aux saveurs de cerise. On le place aujourd'hui au dessus du 2002
