2020 Capbern

The 2020 Capbern is made of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot and has an alcohol content of 14.1%. It will age for about 18 months in French oak barrels, 60% of which are new. The 2020 Capbern has a deep purple-black color and smells of black cherries, mulberries and currant jelly, with hints of candied violets, wild sage and fertile loam. The medium-bodied palate has impressive liveliness and freshness, with soft, well-integrated tannins, red and black berries and a mineral finish.
