2010 Cambon La Pelouse, Haut-Médoc (Pre-Arrival)

SKU #1066831 91-92 points James Suckling

Loads of fruit to this young wine with masses of currants and dark berries. Full body, with silky tannins and a long, long finish. (4/ 2011)

91 points Wine Enthusiast

This shows something of Margaux's-the neighboring appellation-delicacy, allied with firm, dry tannins. It has the dense structure and ripeness characteristic of the vintage, with a rich black-fruit flavor and acidity. It’s a wine for long-term aging. (2/ 2013)

90 points Wine Spectator

*Smart Buy* 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. (3/ 2013)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

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. This large estate, located not far from the classified-growth chateaux of Cantemerle and Giscours, has produced a blend of 50% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot. (2/ 2013)
