Clos Troteligotte
K-Or 2021
Cahors | Red | 2021
Sourced from a single plot on the Cahors limestone plateaus, K-Or 2021 is a straightforward and expressive Malbec, crafted without pretense. Gentle, sulfite-free vinification allows the grapes and the soil to speak for themselves, while aging in concrete tanks refines the texture without masking the fruit. A sincere, intense yet accessible wine that combines depth and drinkability.
