Our opinion on the vintage

From the first glance, this wine reveals a garnet color with purplish highlights, promising a rich and complex tasting experience. On the nose, it is distinguished by aromas of black fruit cream, combined with nuances of plum, cocoa, and spices, enhanced by a subtle hint of menthol. On the palate, the sensation is round and full, even enveloping, revealing a luscious and velvety texture. The expressive and refined fruit is accompanied by a minerality that underscores the presence of limestone, making each sip both vigorous and refreshing. The persistent finish intensifies the spicy and cocoa aromas, while leaving a pleasant chalky trace that invites another tasting.

Cosse et Maisonneuve

Bordeaux | France

Cahors, yes, but in a more elongated, vertical style, where the Malbec never seeks to be heavy. Catherine Maisonneuve and Mathieu Cosse have breathed new life into the wines: less extraction, more rhythm, and controlled aging. The wines possess the tight structure and precision that characterize great modern Cahors. In short: remarkable purity.
