The 2017 Roc de Cambes has a dropdead gorgeous nose of violets, crushed rose petals, sandalwood, cassis and cedar. The palate is juicy and rather delectable, with a crunchy verve and then a profound depth of blueberry, ripe raspberry and dark chocolate. The tannins constitute an impressive chassis, substantial but wonderfully fine, fruit-coated and ushering the fruit through to a long, peppery finish. 100% new oak, which is all but imperceptible.
