Château Camensac is a Fifth Growth estate in St.-Laurent du Medoc, in Haut-Medoc. The 185-acre estate traces its history back centuries, but its success since the late 20th century has been due to the Forner family, which purchased the estate in 1965. The Forner brothers replanted vineyards and update the winemaking facilities. The Forners have considerable experience in the wine business since they own and run the successful Marques de Caceres winery in Rioja, Spain. Camensac grows 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot and produces nearly 300,000 bottles annually. It makes a second wine called La Closerie de Camensac at the rate of about 80,000 bottles annually. Robert M. Parker Jr. notes that the estate’s wines “possess good concentration and a straightforward, four-square style.”
