2022 Capbern

The limestone-dominant soils of Ch. Capbern worked in the estate’s favour in the hot, dry 2022 growing season. The tannins are fully resolved and beautifully integrated for a Saint-Estèphe property, particularly in 2022, with the wine showing beautiful balance. It is full of plush, opulent, rich blackberry and plum fruit, yet finishes with mouth-watering, mineral freshness. Long, precise and impressive. Aged in 60% new oak. Blend: 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot, 1% Cabernet Franc
