Vineyards & Viticulture
Often mistakenly viewed as the second wine of Roc des Cambes, Domaine de Cambes is actually a separate vineyard, with more clay in its soil composition and less limestone. This soil remains cool, allowing for an extended growing season. The grape varieties are approximately 55% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec.

Clay and limestone
Harvest & Vinification
After hand harvest and primary fermentation in concrete, the wine is then matured in an average of 50% new oak barrels for 15- 18 months.
