The little brother of Péby Faugères and Faugères, Château Cap de Faugères, with 20 hectares of vines, is located in the pretty commune of Sainte Colombe, in the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. It benefits from superb clay-limestone slopes that are an extension of the terroir in St.-Émilion, worked by the same team with the same rigour and passion. The terroir is expressed in each vintage, offering wines that can be enjoyed at a relatively early age.
85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 12 to 14 months, 60% in second-fill barrels, 40% in third-fill barrels, no fining
The medium garnet-purple colored 2015 Cap de Faugeres has a ripper of a nose, featuring warm plums and baked cherries with hints of garrigue, forest floor and chargrill. Medium to full-bodied, plush and with a savory/meaty character in the mouth, it features impressive restraint and finishes on a mineral note. Anticipated Maturity: 2018-2029
