2022 Domaine de Cambes - Bordeaux AC - Frankreich -Subskription-

Decanter.com – 92 pts – GH: *Perfumed and floral, still concentrated and full ripe black fruits too. Smells heady and powerful. Supple and clean, this has a juicy blackcurrant core with well-textured, powdery, chewy tannins that give liquorice, sweet cedar and caramel toast flavours. Round with nice energy and purity. Intense and concentrated, really aromatic but still with mouthwatering acidity and some juicy herbal and liquorice-edged raspberry flavours. Ends cool with stony touches.* - 04/2023

JancisRobinson.com – 16,5/20pts – JL: * 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample. Ripe but refined with luscious fruit and freshness as well. Added note of complexity so not just the expression of fruit. Could be heady but handles the alcohol well. Delicious.* - 04/2023

Vinous.com – (91-93) pts – AG: *The 2022 Domaine de Cambes offers tons of saline, infused energy and tension. Crushed rocks, menthol, white flowers and chalk all run through this nervy, nuanced Bordeaux. Time in the glass brings out lovely inner sweetness and perfume to play off the wine’s mid-weight sense of structure. All the 2022 needs is time. The blend is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc.* - 04/2023

Vinous.com – (90-92) pts – NM: *The 2022 Domaine des Cambes, from the Mitjavile family, has a very pure bouquet with blackcurrant, wild strawberry and cherry scents, again, very Burgundian in style. The palate is medium-bodied with an almost viscous entry, smooth and sensual, with white pepper and sage hints toward the finish. This 2022 is concentrated and a bit lascivious.* - 04/2023

Thewinecellarinsider.com – (90-92) pts – JL: *Tobacco leaf, cocoa, red berries and oceanic influences show through on the nose. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, earthy, chewy, and leafy, leaving you with savory, red berries and salty tannins in the finish. The wine blends 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2025-2035.* - 05/2023
