Chateau du Cedre Cahors Malbec 2021

“The 24-ha estate of Pascal and Jean-Marie Verhaeghe has done as much as any to improve the recent quality of Cahors and provide the challenge it should be giving to the most profound Malbecs of Argentina - and some of the other great wines of France. Not only does the Domaine lead by example, but Pascal Verhaeghe has also been the driving force behind the Cahors ‘Quality Charter’.” Andrew Jefford, The New France.

Made from a blend of 90% Malbec, 5% Merlot, 5% Tannat, including fruit grown by local producers that Pascal consults to. About 70% is lighter and finer material from the limestone plateau (thecausses) and 30% richer and denser fruit from the iron-rich gravelly terraces of the Lot River valley. The vines average 25-30 years and about 85% of the fruit is currently certified organic.
