Spiced berry fruit on the nose, well handled, well textured tannins, a little rustic but fully ripe, unfussy, approachable, with mandarin and orange zest giving a juicy lift on the finish. On border of Castillon and St Emilion, ageing in stainless steel, 37hl/h yield, harvest September 6 to 28.

The 2022 Château Cap De Faugères is charming, forward, and delicious, offering red and black fruits, spice, and a touch of graphite. Medium-bodied, it has obvious minerality and a beautifully balanced, approachable style. I like it today yet this outstanding Castillon will keep for 10-12 years with ease.

The 2022 Cap de Faugères has a sprightly, quite opulent bouquet with black cherries, blueberry and violet scents, cohering nicely in the glass with its well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied and lightly spiced with sapid black fruit, fine delineation and a lovely saline finish. This is recommended.

Bright and vivid fruit with red berries, flowers and crushed stone. Medium body, fine tannins and a juicy finish. Salty at the end. Crunchy. 85% merlot, 10% cabernet franc and 5% cabernet sauvignon. So drinkable now, but will age nicely.

The 2022 Cap de Faugères is bold, punchy and super-expressive. Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, orange peel and mint build effortlessly in the glass. This is an especially deep and rich vintage for Cap de Faugères.

Nicely aromatic on the nose, soft floral touches and dark fruits. Quite tannic and extracted on the palate, feels intensely concentrated and compact right now with all the tannins are the fore, massy, ripe and slightly toasted. There is a juiciness underneath the tannins, with mouthwatering acidity but it's overshadowed right now with crushed stones, clove, tobacco and liquorice. Doesn't quite have the easy enjoyment but this is well worked with tannins that are full but not harsh, textured but not too dry. Will be good to retaste in bottle. Harvest 6-28 September. Yield of 37hl/ha. Ageing for 12 months in stainless steel.

The 2022 Cap de Faugères has a sweet, quite candied bouquet with dark cherries and violet scents, perhaps just missing a degree of delineation. It does improve in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly coarse tannins. Tea leaves infuse the black fruit with an off-dry, more classically-styled finish. Appreciating the freshness here.

Plenty of estate signature, high tannins met equally by high freshness, this has enjoyable balance, muscular with plenty of damson and plum puree, has impact but carries it off.

The 2022 Cap de Faugeres, 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is deep garnet-purple in color. It comes bounding out with bold notes of juicy blueberries, black cherries, and dark chocolate leading to touches of garrigue, Chinese five spice, and black pepper. The medium to full-bodied palate has a sturdy structure of firm, grainy tannins with a lively backbone and great length.

Agréable fraîcheur dans le bouquet de Cap de Faugères où l'on retrouve le côté chaleureux du millésime mais également la fraîcheur des sols calcaires. Il en résulte une harmonie très appréciable. Le vin a de la matière avec une belle symbiose entre l'ampleur et le côté incisif de la structure acide. A l'image du bouquet, l'harmonie est assurée. Seule la finale doit encore s'arrondir quelque peu. L'élevage réglera cela. Un vin friand, invitant que l'on pourra déjà apprécier jeune. Il offre néanmoins un bon potentiel de garde.

Ensemble frais et savoureux, de bon équilibre entre un merlot généreux et une certaine forme de droiture dans le tannin.

A consistently outstanding wine, as well as a wine that usually represents a great value, the 2022 Château Cap De Faugères reveals a deep ruby/purple hue as well as a great nose of red and blue fruits, smoked tobacco, graphite, and some underbrush/leafy herb nuances. It's medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, and balanced, with a good sense of elegance.

The 2022 Cap de Faugeres is a very pleasant Cotes de Castillon. Succulent red/purplish fruit, lavender, menthol, rose petal and sweet spice are pushed forward in this attractive, mid-weight offering from Silvio Denz. Pretty floral top notes lift the finish. Drinking window : 2025-2032

Rich, deep, dark and fruity, from start to finish you find layers of chocolate-coated, black fruits, licorice, black cherries, and espresso. The wine is plush, round, polished and forward, with a touch of salt and more dark, plummy fruits on the backend. The wine was blended with 85% Merlot, and15% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2025-2034.
