APPEARANCE
The dress is dark garnet, bright and limpid.

NOSE
The nose is neat, with vibrant notes of currants and raspberries, followed by floral aromas of fresh roses, and a fine woody touch, very lighted vanilla-flavoured.

PALATE
The mouth shows a very refined tannin in a supple envelope that perfects the middle of the mouth. The fruity and floral aromas are confirmed. The finish is long and evokes a sensation of tasty current jelly.

AGEING
Ageing in French oak barrels for 14 to 18 months (60% new barrels).

PAIRING
Château de Camensac goes particularly well with an Entrecote Bordelaise, roast duck or rack of lamb, and warm dark chocolate lava cake.
