Yves Beck 90-92 points www.yvesbeck.wine Le bouquet de Capbern affiche un fruit éclatant de fraîcheur et parfaitement en phase avec l’élevage. La fraîcheur est également l’élément-moteur du palais où elle est idéalement véhiculée par la structure acide tandis. Les tannins sont fins, élégants et le vin est déjà très invitant. Le défi consistera à l’attendre un peu, mais il sera judicieux de céder rapidement à la tentation ! 2025-2035
Jean-Marc Quarin 92 points www.quarin.com Couleur sombre et soutenue. Nez très aromatique, fruité, à la fois mûr et un brin vif. La bouche se présente tout en distinction tannique, avec du goût, du fruit et un merveilleux toucher. Finale de bonne longueur, sèveuse et fondante. Assemblage : 70 % cabernet sauvignon (c’est la proportion la plus élevée), 28 % merlot, 2 % petit verdot. Degré d’alcool : 12°8 – pH : 3,75. Rendement : 36 hl/ha. Vin ni chaptalisé, ni saigné, ni osmosé.
Antonio Galloni 90-92 www.vinous.com The 2021 Capbern was cropped at 36hL/ha with a 20-day cuvaison, and matured in 60% new oak for a planned 18 months. It has an attractive, fragrant bouquet of vivacious black and blue fruit, a lovely pencil box element emanating from the Cabernet Sauvignon. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, respectable weight and acidity and a saline finish. Not the most complex Saint-Estèphe you will find, but commendable for the vintage and thoroughly enjoyable. (12.8% alcohol)
Georgina Hindle 91 points www.decanter.com (at Bordeaux, 01 Apr 2022) Gorgeous eucalyptus freshness on the nose alongside fragranced blackcurrant notes. high-toned fruit, nicely balanced between sour and sweet but with the edges and real definition that comes across as a touch austere partly also as the acidity is so high and to the fore. Lightly framed and juicy with great overall freshness and lift. It’s also quite direct, there’s no expansion at this point, just straight and taught but well defined and I love the gravel terroir coming through. 3.76pH.
William Kelley 89-91 points www.erobertparker.com Offering up aromas of dark berries, plums, spices, rose petals and loamy soil, the 2021 Capbern is a medium to full-bodied, lively and charming wine with beautifully refined tannins and an impressively penetrating finish. It’s a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot that attained 12.8% alcohol.
Neal Martin 90-92 www.vinous.com The 2021 Capbern is absolutely gorgeous. The aromatics alone are so alluring. A whole range of Cabernet inflections leads into a core of bright red toned fruit. Dried herbs, mint, tobacco, cedar, crushed flowers and red berry fruit grace this exquisite, vibrant Saint-Estèphe. Bright acids perk up the finish. En primeur samples were taken from new barrels only, but the final wine is projected to have 60% new oak.
