Cahors Malbec 2020

Love this wine but I will admit 2020 is not as strong as other vintages. Nose is lovely with violets, dark cranberries, berry fruit and lots of smoke and minerals. Palate is lush but also had a major mineral spines Good freshness and purity but the heat of 2020 is showing in that it’s not hot but it’s also not as focused as it could be. Maybe air will help. — 18 hours ago

When one considers the quality of the 2020 vintage in Bordeaux, it doesn’t seem like a stretch that Cahors would be strong as well. That being said, the former need a lot of time because many are all knees and elbows

Pigmentum Cahors Malbec 2021

Nice pepper and current flavor. Enjoying with some cheeses and olive oil and bread. Tannins are well balanced with the fruit. I’m a big fan of Malbec so I might be biased but this is a very tasty wine. — a month ago

Domaine Cosse et Maisonneuve

Solis Cahors Malbec 2020

A good match with BBQ Scotch Fillet Steaks on New Year’s Eve. Mid Ruby in colour with red berry savoury, meaty aromas. A medium weight palate with some savoury richness. A bit straightforward. From the spiritual home of Malbec but not as good as Argentinian Malbec to my palate. The latter having more plummy depth and weight. . I think the altitude of the Andes has much to do with it. — a month ago

Still no notes, still celebrating our friend's 40th birthday. It's not my contribution but I'm super happy to see this wine here after I visited the winery last summer. — 3 months ago
