Offers an earthy, old-school profile, with cast iron, tobacco and humus notes balanced out by black cherry and cassis fruit flavors. Nicely focused finish, with one last late tug of earth at the very end. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2023 through 2030. 15,000 cases made. — JM

Château Cap de Faugères
The Faugères property lies within 2 appellations - Saint-Émilion (Château Faugères) and Côtes de Castillon, the latter is named Château Cap de Faugères. A notable 31 hectares in size, Cap de Faugères is owned by Silvio Denz, a Swiss entrepreneur who bought the property in 2005 and has since invested heavily in it, despite already having a good reputation in terms of wine quality. The vineyards are planted with 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Robert Parker has referred to their wines as "always one of the top Côtes de Castillons".
