Vineyards This Cotes de Castillon Bordeaux wine is a twenty-hectare vineyard planted at
6,600 vines/hectare and whose average age is 30 years. The Right Bank vineyard is
planted to a varietal mix includes 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5%
Cabernet Sauvignon. The vines are planted on the limestone plateau and on clay
and limestone hillsides, immediately adjacent to Saint-Etienne-de-Lisse in the
eastern portion of St. Emilion.
Harvest The harvests began with the Merlot for rosé on 19 and 21 September, with direct
pressing, followed by the white grapes on 23 and 24 September.
Picking of the red grapes began on 30 September with the young vines in Cap de
Faugères and ended on 18 October with the last of Péby's Cabernet Sauvignon.
Yields: fortunately, these were higher than for the two previous vintages. For the
red grapes, they were 20 hl/ha for the old vines, and from 31 to 44 hl/ha for the
rest. For the white and rosé Bordeaux, we obtained 50 hl/ha.
Vinification/
Maturation
The winery at Château Cap de Faugères is the work of internationally renowned
architects Jean de Gastines and Patrick Dillon. It consists of 30 temperaturecontrolled stainless-steel conical vats and 6 wooden vats, each of 50 hl capacity,
used for the vinification processes. They are then matured in small oak barriques
(50% new) for 12 months.
