Château Capbern (2018)

New

The Capbern 2018 has a deep garnet-purple color. It needs a little coaxing to reveal notions of cedar, pencil shavings, and bay leaves, over a core of redcurrant jelly, black raspberries, and ripe plums. Medium-bodied, the palate is delicately played and refreshing, with fine-grained tannins and lovely purity on the finish.

    Chateau Capbern Gasqueton in Bordeaux has been in the ownership of the Gasqueton family, owners of the 3rd classed Growth Ch Calon Ségur, for 10 generations.  It is a Cru Bourgeois, located close to the best part of St Estephe, and has 41 hectares under vine.

    Unsurprisingly in view of the excellence of Calon Ségur at present this is a well-run estate, producing wines of charm and structure capable of lasting comfortably 10-20 years in good vintages. The fruit is all hand-harvested and oak is used judiciously, with only one-third of the barrels new each year. 10,000 cases are produced and in the context of the current pricing of top Bordeaux we regard this as offering excellent value for money.
