Classic notes of pencil shavings and blackcurrant; soft and rounded yet still with some ageing potential, but very nice now. Score: 89 Jane Anson, Decanter.com Maturity: 2019-2024 04 October 2018 |

Dense but fresh, with a saturated core of blackberry pâte de fruit, anise and plum sauce that races along with vibrant spice and graphite notes. The long finish shows cut and drive, with enough grip to cellar short term. Best from 2014 through 2019. Designation: Smart Buys Score: 90 James Molesworth, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2014-2019 31 March 2013 |

There are nearly 200,000 bottles of this dense ruby/purple wine, which exhibits load of licorice, barbecue smoke, roasted meats, black currants and sweet cherries. It is well-made, medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a long finish. Surprisingly, even here the alcohols hit 14% naturally. This wine should drink nicely for 5-7 years. Score: 88 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2013-2020 01 February 2013 |

A major sleeper of the vintage from this 100-acre vineyard near Cantemerle and Giscours, the 2010 is a blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot produced under the guidance of well-known consultant, Claude Gros. An opaque ruby/purple color is followed by sweet black raspberry, black cherry and black currant fruit notes intermixed with notions of licorice and graphite. Medium to full-bodied and supple textured, this sexy Bordeaux should be consumed over the next 5-8 years. Score: 89 - 92 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 04 May 2011 |

The Chateau Cambon La Pelouse 2010 has a very pure bouquet with black cherries, boysenberry and blueberry, good definition and well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh vibrant, sappy dark berried fruits, well integrated oak and a very refined, polished finish. Bravo! Tasted April 2011.

Well-extracted black fruits, impressively rich with potential complexity and will show well. Score: 16 - 17 Decanter, Decanter.com Maturity: 2014-2022 01 April 2011 |
