Impressive intensity, and you can see the work that has been going on at Camensac over the past decade brought out by the success of 2022. Has a chalky edge to the tannins, combined with slim rosebud florals, tight through the opening then softens to damson, soft crayon and grilled caramel. Tasted in recent château vertical also, same score. Villars-Foubet and Merlaut owners, harvest September 8 to 27.

Smoky red and black fruits, spicy oak, and leafy tobacco notes shine in the 2022 Château De Camensac, a medium-bodied, concentrated 2022 that has ripe yet building tannins, solid balance, and outstanding length. The blend is 59% Cabernet Sauvignon and 41% Merlot, from gravelly soils, and there were over 16,000 cases produced.

The 2022 Château de Camensac has a potent, finely delineated Japanese nori-tinged bouquet, with notes of blackberry, wild hedgerow and a touch of brine. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, a crunchy texture and a keen line of acidity. Touches of graphite on the finish complete a well-crafted Camensac to drink over the next 15 years.

Quite a scented and layered nose of spiced berries, pencil shavings, white pepper and creme de cassis. Quite refined and pretty, with a medium to full body and firm, polished tannins. Poised, juicy and long. One of the best Camensacs I have tasted, and it’s a great value for this excellent vintage. Drink from 2027.

The 2022 de Camensac is a very serious wine and also a huge overachiever in its peer group. Vertical and explosive in the glass, the 2022 stains the palate with inky dark fruit. Sage, mint, tobacco, incense and licorice are strands in the wine's gorgeous fabric of aromas and flavors. I especially admire the depth, persistence and overall substance here. Superb.

Sweet black cherry, bilberry and cassis fruits from the first moments, this has impressive stucture and is well built, with a slow build to the tannins as it opens through the palate. Spiced black chocolate and slate on the finish, ticks all the Left Bank boxes, closes down on the finish where the concentration threatens to overwhelm, but a clear sign that this is a vintage worth your time. Harvest September 8 to 27

Supple and mouthwatering so you get texture and liveliness straight away. Tannins come in fairly quickly and give some restriction and tension to the palate, narrowing on the finish but keeping the fruit intensity. This has style, and good juiciness, but the liquorice, clove, saltiness and generally quite massy tannins take over. Has good potential, does feel well worked and there's precision to the overall frame. Tasted twice. Harvest 8-27 September.

Medium deep crimson. Fresh black cherry, brambly, violet, hint wood varnish aromas. Concentrated black cherry, blackcurrant, touch spicy flavours, chalky bitter firm tannins and some attractive savoury oak notes. Firm abrupt finish. (Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 40% new oak)

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 de Camensac is a little closed to start off, opening out to wafts of lavender, cedar chest, and pencil lead, giving way to a core of blackcurrant jelly and kirsch. The medium to full-bodied palate has a firm, grainy backbone and seamless freshness framing the generous black fruits, finishing with impressive length.

De bonne intensité, le bouquet de Camensac révèle d'invitantes et subtiles notes fruitées et épicées. L'élevage est présent, mais bien entouré par les autres éléments. En bouche, Camensac se distingue par sa fraîcheur, son énergie et ses tannins veloutés, bien intégrés. Un vin tout en finesse que l'on pourra approcher dans sa jeunesse, mais qui dispose d'un bon potentiel de garde. Belle réussite.

Jolis arômes de cèdre, beau corps, bel équilibre même si le milieu de bouche n’égale pas celui des meilleurs vins du millésime. Nous l’avons rarement vu naître aussi précis et prometteur. De grands progrès.

Currants, blackberries, cedar and tobacco leaf work perfectly here. The wine has ample fruit and freshness with a savory edge to the currant and cranberry finish. A year or two in the cellar will add even more to the wine. Drink from 2026-2038.
