90 RP "This is the Roc de Cambes' finest effort since the 1990. Notes of black cherry jam (kirsch) soar from the glass of this expansive, full-bodied, fleshy sexpot. Deep and chewy, with plenty of chocolate, cocoa, blackberry, and cherry fruit displayed in a flamboyant style, it is a knockout, sensual wine . . . . It is also a sleeper of the vintage." 89 ST "Good bright red-ruby. Superripe aromas of roasted red fruits, espresso and woodsmoke; this reminded me of a Bonneau Chateauneuf du Pape. Fat and liqueur-like in the mouth, with roasted red fruit and chocolate flavors managing to retain good freshness. Intensely flavored wine . . ."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
