Cru Bourgeois in the Haut-Medoc and one of the top values in left bank Bordeaux, the Chateau Cambon La Pelouse is an exciting library release from the 2017 vintage! Situated at the southern tip of the appellation, not far from Chateau Cantemerle and Chateau Giscours, the vineyards are planted with an almost 50/50 split of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. In fact, Cambon La Pelouse is known to carry some of the highest percentages of Merlot for a left bank Bordeaux, which works perfectly in the 2017 vintage. They hired the well-respected Hubert de Bouard of Chateau Angelus to consult at the property in 2013. Since these changes were made, the estate has been on an impressive trajectory as of late, with scores climbing to the mid-90s. Listed on Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2020, don't miss this amazing Bordeaux!
"This estate in the southern part of the Haut-Médoc region has produced a powerfully dense wine. Luscious black fruits and concentrated tannins are lifted by the year's wood aging. Licorice and a firm edge of tannin give this wine the structure to allow it to age. Drink from 2023. Cellar Selection." The Wine Enthusiast, 92 Points
