Chateau Camensac 2012

The 2012 Château de Camensac wine boasts a vibrant ruby colour with a garnet rim. It exudes lively red currant, cherry, plum, and cassis fruit flavours, complemented by hints of warm and sweet spices, such as eucalyptus and vanilla. The wine also presents floral tones, toast, milk chocolate, and brown sugar. This well-balanced Haut-Médoc Cru Classé showcases a fresh, mid-palate, and fine food wine, showing soft tannins and distinct cedar tones embodying the regional character. Soft, uncomplicated and enjoyable, this wine is an excellent contrast in style to similar Cru CLasses from Haut Medoc such as La Tour Carnet and Cantemerle.

Enowned oenologists Michel Rolland and Eric Boissenot, who made the wine, deliver exceptional value and quality. Perfectly paired with red meat, it leaves a lasting impression with its persistent finish. This medium-bodied wine is a true standout with a 13.5% ABV and a DD92 score.

Château Camensac's 65 hectares of vineyards in the commune of Saint-Laurent-Médoc are meticulously cultivated and yield 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. The 35-year-old vines are densely planted at 10,000 vines per hectare, and the estate strictly maintains yields at 45 hectoliters per hectare, ensuring top-notch quality. Hand-picked and sorted grapes further attest to the estate's commitment to excellence.
