2019 Domaine de Cambes Bordeaux AC

WeinWisser – 18,5/20pts - WL: *Tiefes Purpur. Dicht verwobenes Bouquet mit frisch gepflückten Brombeeren, dahinter eine leicht rauchige Note vom Barriqueausbau, Pflaumenkompott und Kirschlikör. Am molligen Gaumen ein Freudenfest, samtige Textur gepaart mit herrlicher Extraktsüsse und kakaoartigem Tannin, ganz leicht stützend. Im gebündelten Finale eine volle Ladung Cassis, dunkle Edelhölzer und Brasiltabak. Ein grandioser, sehr dichter Côte de Bourg, sogar noch besser als im letzten Jahr!* – 04/2020

JancisRobinson.com – 16/20pts – JL: *Fruit pushed to the edge of overripeness but it works. Bright, dark-fruit notes with toasted overlay. Palate sweet, silky and gourmand, bringing a freshness to the finish. Clearly surpasses its appellation status.* - 06/2020

Vinous.com – (92-94) pts – AG: *The 2019 Domaine de Cambes is stellar. Rich, ample and inviting, the 2019 possesses tremendous depth and textural resonance from the very first taste. Dried herbs, cedar, pipe tobacco, lavender, spice and menthol are all kicked up in a wonderfully expressive Domaine de Cambes that hits all the right notes. This is such a gorgeous wine.* - 06/2020

Vinous.com – (90-92) pts – NM: *The 2019 Domaine des Cambes is well defined on the nose with crushed iris petal, sand and incense combining nicely with the opulent black fruit. A touch of sage develops with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a creamy textured opening belying the structure that lies underneath. Veins of dark chocolate appear towards the finish that retains impressive delineation and it certainly has length. It will need 3-5 years just to assimilate the oak.* - 06/2020

Thewinecellarinsider.com – (88-90) pts – JL: *Garnet with a touch of brick in the color, mint with a shot of smoked cherries, the wine is quite earthy in nature, in its fruit and nose and on the palate. Concentrated, round and fruity, you can drink this young or age it for more complexity.* - 06/2020
