Note di degustazione
The first year with sufficient quality grapes, plus an improved global outlook, at least with the Chinese market, to allow the new owners to show what they had achieved over the previous four or five years. It is one of the more balanced and reserved 2009s of the 1855 grouping, but you see a tighter more confident structure to the wine than in earlier vintages, and a greater clarity to the fennel, crayon, liquorice notes, and beautiful crushed roses on the aromatics. Fruits remain brambled blackberry and loganberry rather than tight cassis or bilberry. It's enjoyable, ready to drink but will age. Eric Boissenot consultant. Harvest September 23 to October 7. 60% new oak.

Blackish crimson. Hint of brett? Broad and full and sweet and opulent. Lots of wild beasties in here but quite fun! Definitely outside the norm. Controversial wine! Sour finish. Needs time – more than some of its peers. (JR)
Bright, soft and fruity with plum and currant character, with full to medium body and a chewy finish. Muscular.
Informazioni sul produttore
A stone’s throw from Saint-Julien, Ch. de Camensac was long underperforming, but – under the ownership of the Merlaut-Villars family – was totally restructured, and quality transformed.
