Domaine Alain Chabanon "Campredon" red 2022

RVF Guide to the Best Wines of France 2025 (Sept. 2024): 91/100. The juicy and fresh Campredon expresses notes of licorice and anise, with a hint of pepper.

Hachette Guide 2026 (Sept. 2025): 2* (remarkable wine). All the freshness of the appellation in this invigorating, elegant red, vinified with finesse, delivering a very characteristic palette of licorice, menthol, and fruit (blackcurrant and cherry). Spicy notes weave through an airy, soft, smooth mouthfeel, supported by lightly powdered tannins. With immaculate freshness, it is a fine ambassador for the appellation.
