1998 vintage- oldest Cahors I've ever had. Smoke, tar, blackberry liqueur, still some violet hanging on. Interesting!

Pre phylloxera Malbec from the Vaucluse. Aerated 2 hours. Deep dark color. Nose of dark fruit. Palate of dark fruit, cedar and a flash of truffle. Balanced acid and tannins ABV 12.5% leading to an overall lightness. Perfect with duck confit. Different, stylish and just right.

Fransk Malbec. Svårt vad man skall vänta sig. Gott och vällagrat.

Excellent old world Malbec, at its apex. None of the animale I link with new world Malbec (great Catenas come to mind), enough age to have a soft, cedary edge on a dark cherry core. Very solid match for the Kansas cut, drink up.
