Tasting notes
The 2017 Domaine des Cambes opens with a beautifully nuanced, almost Burgundy-like bouquet, offering pure notes of blackberry, briary, and clove. Though more restrained than its sibling Domaine de l’Aurage, it reveals impressive aromatic depth with time in the glass.
On the palate, there's an appealing edginess and a subtle marine character — hints of Japanese nori adding complexity to the dusky black fruit. The finish lingers with touches of dark chocolate and spice, making this a distinctive and contemplative Right Bank wine.
