89 / 100 Robert Parker The dense ruby/purple-colored 2001 possesses a sweet bouquet of smoke, black currants, melted licorice, and earth. Medium-bodied, with supple tannin, abundant fruit, and fine concentration, this beauty can be enjoyed over the next 7-8 years. It is a sleeper of the vintage.
An up and coming estate, Cambon La Pelouse owns 150 acres (poor, gravelly soil) situated between Cantemerle and Giscours. The vineyard is planted with 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Cabernet Franc. Since winery renovations were completed in the late nineties, the wines have shown considerable character in an early maturing, fruit forward style. Wine Advocate #153
16 / 20 Jancis Robinson Deep, thick, fresh and green on the palate. Good position between Giscours and Cantemerle and good intent though too tart to allow much fun. http://www.jancisrobinson.com/tastings/search?keywords=Cam..
