2018 Capbern Magnum

The 2018 Capbern consists of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot and has an alcohol content of 14.6%. It is expected to mature for 16 months in barriques, 60% of which will be new. Deep purple-black in color, it leaps from the glass with vibrant scents of black raspberry, cherry and fresh black currant with nuances of cedar, pencil lead and forest floor as well as a hint of lavender. Full-bodied, rich and packed with juicy fruit, it has a firm line of grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with an herbal lift.
