In fact, the estates geographical location provided the inspiration for the name of the domaine, as it is located in the commune of St. Laurent des Combes. The 12 hectare vineyard of Roc de Cambes is planted to 75% Merlot , 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. The terroir is mostly limestone and clay soils, similar to what you find in the Right Bank of Bordeaux, especially in Saint Emilion.
Tasting Notes
“Succulent, fleshy, plum and bramble jam. Really smooth tannins and an attractive oak vanillin character – integrated but definite. Modern, powerful and delicious.”
