Description

The aromatic expression and balance of a Saint-Estèphe red wine

The property

The Château Capbern is a cru from Saint-Estèphe located in the northeast of the appellation. Château Capbern is owned by Château Calon Ségur.

The vineyard

Château Capbern is a Saint-Estèphe wine from a 38.5-hectare vineyard, of which 31.5 hectares are in production. The vines, which are on average 14 years old, are planted on sandy-gravelly, clayey-gravelly and limestone soils.

The vintage

The winter of 2023-2024 was mild and rainy. The flowering, in June, took place in dry and temperate weather. The summer, slightly cool and not very water-deficient, allowed a serene growth of the vine. In September, sustained rains and cool temperatures required increased vigilance, but the clayey soils favored good maturation.

Vinification and aging

Manual harvest. First control of the grape on the vine. Vibrating destemmer and manual sorting table. Vinification in thermo-regulated cylindrical stainless steel vats. The maceration period is 20 days. The aging is for a period of 18 months in barrels (60% new, 40% of one wine).

Blend

The Château Capbern 2024 is a blend of cabernet sauvignon (70%) and merlot (30%).
