Purple-black colour, quite shut-in but concentrated blackcurrant nose, clean and densely packed fruit, good length and good future.

While not strictly part of the Haut-Medoc Chateau Cambon la Pelouse, this small parcel in Margaux is under the same ownership and vinification. The wine has weight, some solid fruit, with the wood adding polish but not dominating. A well-structured wine for medium-term aging. ——R.V.(6/1/2010)—— 91
