CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2019 Capbern has improved since I tasted it just after bottling. Finally, it has developed a more elegant bouquet, mainly black fruit fused with cedar and undergrowth scents. It has mustered more classicism. The palate is medium-bodied with a strong graphite element on the entry, fine depth, quite fresh with a structured, gritty finish. Fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

Tasted blind. Big and bold and voluptuous - much riper and more alcoholic than stereotypical St-Estephe. A bit charred on the end. Closer to a late-20th-century red than a bordeaux! Very unexpected! (JR)
