Fantastic structure for the vintage

Chateau Cap de Faugeres Castillon, Cotes de Bordeaux, France 2018 Hervias I like the floral characterThis has a gorgeous violet edging to the colour with clear oak influence, veering to smoky and working well. There is a clear tightening through the mid palate, as you would expect from the limestone soils, but it will soften over ageing and they have captured plenty of juice running through the blueberry and blackberry fruits. 92 Pts Decanter
