Description
The origins of this Saint-Estèphe based estate go back to the XVIIIth century, out of a wedding between the Rivière and Capbern families, and then Capbern and Gasqueton. Capbern’s terroir features an extraordinary qualitative breeding ground, in the proper nature of the soils.
Under the same management as Calon Ségur, its sister estate, Capbern is benefiting from a gravity fed vat house of 37 vats, and an ageing cellar in which the wines are going to mature for 18 months.
Tasting Notes :
Château Capbern presents a rich and fragrant bouquet with notes of morello cherries and blackcurrant. It is a rich and fruity wine with pleasant mineral nuances. This vintage expresses itself marvellously, both tender and full, with an obvious terroir and a magnificent precision in the extraction of the tannins. A Saint-Estèphe with exceptional value for money!
