December 23, 2023 - Pnp. Red fruits and cinnamon spice, maybe even a slight citrus note, but really the earth/forest floor/minty notes are dominating this wine. Acidity is refreshing and the tannin is well integrated. I'm quite impressed. Not a favorite vintage of mine, and I can't remember the last time I had this chateau...but I will definitely try to seek more of this out. A more classic, traditional style. Great effort here. 92 points.

November 3, 2023 - A bit more tannic and closed than the last bottle, but with a bit more stuffing, so merits an extra point.

June 25, 2023 - Red fruits with cedar on the nose. Floral notes with some air. Palate lacks a little persistence but has soft tannins and bright acidity. Not bad

June 11, 2023 - Camensac means “on the water’s way” and comes from the words camens, which means “path” or “way” and ac which means “water” in local dialect.
It’s aromas are (slightly) dominated by floral elements, followed by red fruits and earthy notes.
Red fruits jump out of the palate, while the balanced tannins and its refreshing acidity lead to a clean and medium finish. Quite elegant i would say !! -

March 26, 2023 - Château de Camensac Haut-Médoc GCC 2015 . 13.5% ALC
57% CS / 43% M
P&P bei zunächst 15°, dann sich langsam erwärmend
Schöne dunkle Purpurfarbe, ohne Alterstöne
Nase: zunächst sehr Kuhstall, nach einer Stunde schöne klassische Noten nach Cassis, réglisse, hinterlegt von noch ganz wenig des ursprünglichen "Stinkers", was dem Wein bekommt, indem es die Frucht mit Leder und Lehm verbindet, auch mit Graphit und Noten von Fenchel und Kardamom.
Gaumen: Hier wirkt der Wein eher schmalbrüstig und zunächst etwas krautig, zeigt dann aber mit steigender Temperatur und mehr Luftkontakt mehr von dem, was in ihm steckt: Tabaknoten kommen zum Vorschein, ganz wenig Pfeffer, etwas Waldboden und wieder Graphit und auch Stein im Abgang.
Fazit: kein großer Wein, aber ein guter Haut-Médoc alter Schule, quasi ein Gegenentwurf zum gestern getrunkenen Clos Marsalette aus der 2020er Sub, einem wunderbar fruchtigen, aber auch modernen Pessac-Léognan mit zufälligerweise fast derselben Rebsortenzusammensetzung (58% CS/40% M/2% CF).
Beide Weine 90 Punkte
