A Classified Growth produced in the Haut-Medoc appellation, the Chauteau De Camensac is a red wine made from a blend of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon and 43% Merlot.

A long winter, a few cold and frosted days, with plentiful rainfalls in December and January. June is suddenly very warm. The flower evolves nicely. July is heatwave, vine is tested. August gives it some respite. Its rainfalls at the
beginning of the month are particularly timely for veraison. September is beautiful. The harvest begins later. We escape some heavy storms. Merlot comes calmly, ripe and fruity. Temperatures are low and night very cold. Cabernet sauvignon are affected. Rainfalls revive its but warm nights and days worried. The atmosphere is concerned but the result pleasing.

At tasting, the Chauteau de Camensac 2015 presents a clear, radiant, deep garnet colour. One can first smell cherry and cedar aromas. With swirling, we can then note black pepper, fresh rose and mineral fragrances. On the palate, the attack is frank and supple. There are gray tobacco, mineral and slight vanilla wood flavours. The cherry and mint aromas from the palate are long-lasting.
