The 2020 Roc de Cambes was one of the standouts from barrel. Now in bottle, I have to say that the new oak comes across very prominently on the nose, more so than I would personally like compared to the L'Aurage. On the palate, the oak is more assimilated, with fine tannins, touches of cooked meat/dried blood infusing the red fruit. Impressive in terms of weight on the finish. I'm just cautious about that oak on the nose, hence my prudent score.

Another absolute gem of a wine is the 2020 Roc De Cambes, which is mostly Merlot from vines just next to the Domaine de Cambes vineyards. Black cherries, plums, black raspberries, vanilla bean, camphor, and graphite are just some of its nuances, and this concentrated, singular, medium to full-bodied beauty is going to offer tons of pleasure over the coming 15 years as well.

Broad and concentrated, the 2020 Roc de Cambes unwinds in the glass with aromas of cassis, plums, wood smoke, violets and espresso roast. Medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a fleshy core of fruit and powdery structuring tannins, this is the most muscular wine in Mitjaville's cellar.
