Cahors Malbec

Dark purple in the glass. Dark plum on the nose, married with dark chocolate and some earth on the palate. Medium acidity and fine, firm tannins round things out. You think you know Malbec? Not if you don’t know Cahors. And this is a great intro to Malbec’s home appellation. Cahors was sidelined in part thanks to the Bordelaise and their corporate espionage back when the river was the only way to get product to the world. Mostly Malbec with a bit of Merlot. This may be your new Old World best friend. Enjoy anywhere you’d serve Bordeaux or Cabernet.

Great color!

Classic Cahors Malbec. Would buy again.

Good Malbec!

This was a great wine!

Just excellent. Super earthy and jammy. Hints of coffee and ash. Great nose. Excellent with spicy food.

This is a superlative effort that I’m rating high in light of the advantageous price point. A nice change when you are tired of the steady stream of its Argentine cousins.

French Malbec. ... amazing... exceeded my expectations by far

V. Nice Malbec - interestingly different (much lighter) than Malbec's from Mendoza - definitely get again
