Château Capbern
St. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend
A year in, year our favorite. But I’ll look to 16/18 and likely skip the 17. Nice dark fruit, light cherry, leather notes.

Jun 27th, 2022Dark ruby hue. Aromas of blackcurrant, cherry, earthy, licorice, plum, raspberry, rubber, strawberry, and vanilla. Medium-plus body, with medium-plus tannins and medium-plus acidity. Structured and complex with a slight finish of minerals. Drinking very well now, but can be held for several more years. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (55%), Merlot (39%), Cabernet Franc (3%), and Petit Verdot (3%).
