Clos La Coutale
Cahors Merlot
Cahors, Southwest France, France
Pleasant, good value Malbec (85% with 15% Merlot) with raspberry, dark plum, cocoa and pencil lead notes on a firm spine. Good focus and energy here, and quite food friendly to boot.

Dark garnet with some red fruit on the nose. Smooth at first, then some acidity & light tannins come out. Plum, cherry & maybe some strawberry. Pretty good-

Haven’t had a Malbec in a long time but this was pretty decent.

Fruit forward, structured, with a hint of that Cahors funk. Aggressive flavors.
