Description
In a nutshell:
A robust Malbec from the Southwest France offering a compelling alternative to the ubiquitous Argentinian style - think rich, dark berry flavours with an earthy depth and peppery spice.
The lowdown:
This deep, inky red practically shouts blackberry and liquorice from the glass. It comes from Cahors, where Malbec is the star grape, and it shows off all that powerful, dark-fruited character. The vineyards bask in warm sunshine, ideal for ripening grapes to perfection, and a touch of oak adds a whisper of spice. On the palate, it's full-bodied and juicy, with a slightly chewy edge that reminds you this is a serious wine with plenty of oomph and a satisfying, savoury finish.
The Producer:
Château du Cèdre's transformation into a leading light of Cahors is down to brothers Pascal and Jean-Marc Verhaeghe. They champion the region's star grape, Malbec, with a focus on organic farming and thoughtful winemaking. The result? Wines that speak of their unique terroir - full of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of earthiness. Yet, they're never heavy or overpowering. There's a finesse here, a balance between Malbec's power and a welcoming, approachable style. Château du Cèdre showcases how delicious and nuanced Cahors can be.
When to drink:
A full-bodied red like this is tailor-made for a hearty game pie on a chilly night, or a proper Sunday roast with all the trimmings.
Suitable for Vegans, Organic
