Due to its style, it can be used as a mantelpiece wine or for meditation, but it is also, of course, a luxurious meat wine. A deer fillet accompanied by porcini mushrooms fits well, just as tournedos or ripened cheeses. Very versatile.

Color

Black red

Aroma

The luscious scent overflows with dark red berries, black cherries, blueberries, blackcurrants, fresh fig, cocoa, liquorice, cinnamon and vanilla. Its stylish nuance of cigar box makes it noble on the nose

Flavor

Full-bodied, mellow and fruity, but not jamlike in its light spiciness. Rich velvety tannins and lavish on the palate. A luxurious wine thanks to its fine balance, with ample elegance, even though the wine is this rich on the palate

Description

The Lot valley shelters the vineyards of Cahors, kneeling on the bends and hills of the terrain. The continental climate is both cool and warm. The Causse limestone plateau above Lot and the second and third banks of the valley hide magnificent plots for Malbec, from which the grapes are harvested in several stages at the beginning of October. Cold maceration before fermentation extracts the best tannins. Fermentation with the skins takes three weeks. After malolactic fermentation, ten months of maturation, partly in casks, prepares different batches, and the final wine is blended two months before bottling
