The wine begins with intense aromas of orange peel and stone fruits. The palate also displays flavours of nectarine and peach. The finish is very long.

Over the years, Capture has been one of the best Checkmate labels. Always opening with a flinty, seawater, mineral note, this wine comes from a section of 8 rows within their warmest vineyard. The palate combines peaches, honey, and a creamy, mineral texture.
