Magnum - Château Cambon la pelouse - Haut-Médoc 2018

The 2018 Cambon de Palouse offers ripe blue and red berry fruit on the floral nose, which lacks the cohesion and delineation of the best Haut-Médocs in this vintage. The medium-bodied palate is firm and grippy, displaying slightly hard tannins and an assertive, slightly astringent finish. This feels a little "pushed" at the expense of harmony and personality.

Cambon La Pelouse is gorgeous in 2018. Pliant, creamy and enveloping, the 2018 is already quite delicious, even in the early going. Sweet red cherry jam, mocha, licorice and spice build as this super-expressive Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois shows off its alluring personality. In 2018 Cambon La Pelouse offers tons of appeal. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. Tasted two times.

Round, soft, round, forward, medium-bodied earthy charmer with the character of ripe, red fruits, tobacco, espresso and currants in the finish. This is not for long-term aging. So give it a few years and enjoy it over the next 10-12 years or perhaps longer. The wine is made from a blend of 50% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Cambon la Pelouse is scented of cedar, tar and earth with a core of warm plums and cassis with mocha and lavender hints. The palate is full-bodied, firm and laden with fruit, supported by grainy tannins and finishing long.

A vivid and focused young Bordeaux with blackcurrant and blueberry aromas and flavors. Medium body and fine, polished tannins. Bright finish.

The plum and blackberry fruit is bright and pure, with a lightly toasted, slightly chewy finish taking over. Should round into form.
