Almost pitch black in colour - very dense. Barb said Liquorice and Dark Chocolate - also lashings of blackberry. Extremely rich, concentrated fruit. Possibly the richest most full bodied French dry red I’ve ever had. Interesting to compare with the Catena Zapata Malbec a week ago. The Argentinian Malbec coming from high country was more elegant. I must try more Malbec from Cahors. Made for a BBQ Steak. A silky palate finishing with very dry tannins. Bought at Hedonism in Mayfair London several years ago. I have never seen this producer available in Australia.

The wine is clear and bright with a deep ruby colour. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium intensity aromas of dark chery, dark ripe plums, cedar and walnut. The wine is dry in the mouth with a medium+ acidity. It has velvety but firm tannins and a medium alcohol. It has a medium+ body and medium+ intensity flavours. The finish is medium+. It is a good quality wine with a decent finish and concentration. However it could be more complex and longer.
