Is there a better wine to serve blind? Always staggers people with its pure quality. The ultimate "insider's Bordeaux"
C&B Score: 18-19
Profound jet-shot plum in colour, with a firm, dark cherry rim, this has a lovely nose, compote of red and black fruit allied to tobacco, mocha and delicate spice, warm pastry and vanilla cream.

Super-ripe and supremely rich, this Roc de Cambes nonetheless dances across the palate, exuberant and energising through to a protracted, complex and focused finish - stupendous!
