Malbec and Merlot vines on clay-siliceous terraces and clay-limestone half-slopes. Vinification in stainless steel tanks for 10 to 15 days with light pump-overs, aging for 12 months in stainless steel and concrete tanks to retain the fruit. Light filtration before bottling.
Tasting notes
This light Cahors showcases all the freshness and deliciousness of Malbec through aromas of red and black fruits, blackcurrant, cherry, and wild berries, with slightly spicy touches.

Very versatile, it will accompany gourmet cuisine: duck breast, duck confit, as well as grilled meats, charcuterie, terrines, and truffled pâtés.
