Château Cambon La Pelouse 2018 is a juicy, medium-bodied red from the Haut‑Médoc, showing off vibrant blackberry, tobacco leaf, and earthy charm. With grainy tannins and a silky finish, it’s a solid Bordeaux bargain with serious pedigree—including that Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel badge.
Expect deep garnet in the glass, with aromas of cassis, cedar, plum, and graphite. On the palate it’s medium-bodied, layered with ripe red fruit, tobacco, herbs, and a touch of dark chocolate—firm yet polished with a lingering finish.
