About this wine
Roc de Cambes Côtes de Bourg is a powerful, layered red Bordeaux, usually led by Merlot with Cabernet Franc and Malbec in support. Expect ripe dark fruit, cassis and plum, alongside spice, cedar and often a discreet toasted oak note. Its high, lively acidity brings tension to the broad, rich palate; the exact balance can vary with the vintage.
