Description

The intensity and aromatic complexity of an Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel from Haut-Médoc

The estate

Situated in the Haut-Médoc appellation, Château Cambon La Pelouse is one of the most important references of its appellation. The property is listed as Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel following a new classification, with this title applicable from the 2018 vintage to the 2022 vintage. Château Cambon La Pelouse is today owned by the Treasury Wines Estates group, a world renowned reference with extensive experience in Australian, New Zealand, American and Italian vineyards.

The vineyard

Enjoying a remarkable located on the edge of the Margaux appellation, Château Cambon La Pelouse boasts a beautiful 65 hectare vineyard. The vines are planted in very lean and sandy gravel soils dating from the Quaternary period. The particularities of these soils include their excellent drainage and ability to store heat, allowing the grapes to reach perfect ripeness in time for the harvest.

The vintage

The 2020 vintage required plenty of attention on the part of the vineyard teams, especially during the rainy and warm spring season. At the end of the growing season, the bunches produced fewer grapes, already suggesting a lower yield than usual. Thanks to the meticulous work carried out by the teams at Château Cambon la Pelouse in the spring, the vines survived the summer drought with ease. Rainy days at the end of the season allowed the vines to rehydrate. The climatic conditions of 2020 were ideal for Merlot to thrive.

Vinification and ageing

Thanks to the hard work of the teams at Château Cambon la Pelouse, the harvests yielded perfectly ripe and healthy grapes, though in small quantities. Following the harvest, the grapes were transported to the cellar and underwent a very precise winemaking process. The wine aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new.

The blend

Cabernet Sauvignon (50%) and Merlot (50%).
