JEB DUNNUCK: "A consistently outstanding wine, as well as a wine that usually represents a great value, the 2022 Château Cap De Faugères reveals a deep ruby/purple hue as well as a great nose of red and blue fruits, smoked tobacco, graphite, and some underbrush/leafy herb nuances. It's medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, and balanced, with a good sense of elegance."

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: „The 2022 Cap de Faugeres, 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is deep garnet-purple in color. It comes bounding out with bold notes of juicy blueberries, black cherries, and dark chocolate leading to touches of garrigue, Chinese five spice, and black pepper. The medium to full-bodied palate has a sturdy structure of firm, grainy tannins with a lively backbone and great length."
