Château Cap de Faugères 2015 is an exceptionally plush, opulent, and refined red wine hailing from the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. Owned by Silvio Denz and crafted with consultation from Michel Rolland, this benchmark Côtes de Bordeaux demonstrates the remarkable depth and maturity of the warm 2015 vintage. In the glass, it exhibits a deep garnet-purple color and opens with expressive, sweet aromas of ripe black cherries, dark plums, and cassis, seamlessly intertwined with undertones of dark chocolate, tobacco leaf, and subtle crushed stone minerality. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, juicy, and rounded, offering a succulent core of dark berry fruit supported by supple, polished tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, savory finish accented by hints of warm spice.
Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with braised beef short ribs, roasted leg of lamb with rosemary, grilled duck breast, savory meatloaf, or aged hard cheeses.
92 Points - James Suckling
Attractive and neatly focused raspberries and red plums with a very supple, polished and succulent palate that delivers plenty of flavor in a refreshing, sturdy frame. This offers plenty.
90 Points - Wine Spectator
Lively, with aromatic pomegranate, rooibos tea and savory notes forming the core, picking up currant coulis and iron accents on the finish. Drink now through 2023.
