A Malbec that offers the best of both worlds: Full-body and lots of structure, but still real freshness and finesse. Blueberries, black cherries and red plums, with a hint of  smoky cassis and spices. Concentrated and lively with velvety tannins and a tart texture.

Story: Matthieu Cosse and Catherine Maisonneuve are leading a renaissance of the Cahors region. They share a vision of refined, elegant wines with a distinct personality. The grapes used for this wine comes from middle section of the parcel just across from the domaine, which has a north-facing exposure, meaning it has more shade and grapes take longer to ripen. The 55 year-old vines grow on red clay soils with limestone underneath.

Vinification: Grapes are hand picked, table sorted and destemmed. The fermentation takes place in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats using only indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for 14 months in used barrels. Unfined and Unfiltered.

Match it with: Bacon Burger, steak frites, strong cheeses.
