The awards of Domaine de Cambis

Coup de Cœur of the Guide Hachette des Vins

Our Carnet de Voyage 2021 cuvée (AOP Saint-Chinian Berlou) was awarded 3 stars — the highest rating, reserved for wines judged exceptional — and the Coup de Cœur of the Guide Hachette des Vins 2024. Within each appellation, the Coup de Cœur singles out a very small number of wines from among the highest rated.

100% Syrah, a single-plot selection on the schist of Berlou, aged 12 months in French oak demi-muids. Limited production, around 1,200 bottles.

Rated 92/100 by Decanter
