Chateau Cap de Faugéres AOC Castillon-Cotes de Bordeaux 2020 i trækasse

<p><em>”</em><em>Always a smoking wine (as well as a hard to beat value), the 2020 Château Cap De Faugères boasts a deep purple hue as well as lots of cassis and blueberry fruits interwoven with notes of violets, white flowers, and chocolatey oak. Drink this medium to full-bodied, plush, sexy, fruit-loaded rock star of a Castillon over the coming decade." <strong>- Jeb Dunnuck</strong></em></p> <p>Château Cap de Faugères er placeret lige ved siden af St-Émilion og man finder næppe bedre value-køb på højrebreden i Bordeaux end her!</p> <p>Ejeren, Silvio Denz, ejer også et Grand Cru-slot i St-Émilion og som Bordeaux-guruen Jane Anson beskriver her, så er der rigtig meget af den samme charme at finde i Cap de Faugères.</p> <p><em>”You can expect plenty of the same signatures in the wine as you’ll find at Chateau Faugères, and in fact that makes this a good wine for understanding just how closely the terroir in the two appellations mirror each other”</em></p> <p>Château Cap de Faugères er reelt skabt ved "tvang". De franske vinmyndigheder har ført St-Émilions grænse tværs gennem det historiske Faugères-terroir, så en del af marken ikke længere er lovlig som St-Émilion (Grand Cru Classé).</p> <p>De "forbudte druer" har i stedet skabt denne monstrelækre vin, som kan nydes til en brøkdel af prisen for Grand Cru Classé-søstervinene Faugères og Peby Faugères - med 100/100 Robert Parker! Alle tre vine er fra ét sammenhængende terroir med samme ejer samt ikonerne Michel Rolland &amp; Stephan von Neipperg som vinmagere.</p> <p><em>”Adjoining the St-Émilion hillsides and the Faugères and Péby Faugères vineyards, Château Cap de Faugères’s land is rubbing shoulders with the greats… The wine is made by the same team and to the same standards” – ejer, Silvio Denz </em></p> <p>Glæd dig til silkeblød Merlot med mørke blommer og kirsebær, der er indsvøbt i delikate fadkrydderier fra 12-14 måneders modning på fine franske egetræs-barriques. Topkøb i den forrygende 2020 årgang hvor huset i dén grad præsterer!</p> <p><em>Ved køb af 6 flasker leveres vinen i original trækasse.</em></p> <h2><span style="font-size: 14px;"><strong>Anmeldelser af Château Cap de Faugères Côtes de Castillon 2020 OWC</strong></span></h2> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><em>93/100 Izak Litwar, Great Bordeaux Wines<span style="color: #000000;"><br /></span></em></strong></span><em>"Only 19 hl/ha produced.

Elegant nose with refined fruit and floral hints in the background. Subtle oak and mild spices.

It needs a fair bit of swirling to dispel broody notes of tar and damp soil and to bring out a fragrant core of kirsch, black raspberries, and boysenberries, leading to wafts of roses and cinnamon stick. The medium to full-bodied palate is coated with bright, crunchy black and red fruit, supported by fine-grained tannins and a lively line, finishing with a skip in its step."</span></em></span></p> <p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">92/100 Tastingbook.com</span></strong></em></p> <p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">91-93/100 Jeb Dunnuck</span></strong><br />"Always a smoking wine (as well as a hard to beat value), the 2020 Château Cap De Faugères boasts a deep purple hue as well as lots of cassis and blueberry fruits interwoven with notes of violets, white flowers, and chocolatey oak.

Denne klassiske sag er allerede godt på vej til at blive en rigtig perle. Skøn duft af brombær, solbær, lakrids, blommer, viol og mørk chokolade. Den må gerne åbnes i god tid, da den ellers er en smule “lukket”, hvilket også vidner om, at den kan ligge i mange år endnu. Når den kommer til live, har den en skøn frugtighed, friskhed og god syre."</em></p> <p>Nyd den lækre Bordeaux til steaks, lammekød, and, gris, kraftige tapas, svamperetter og modne oste.
