Deep ruby colour, with a slight purple hue. On the nose, it displays intense aromas of blackcurrant, violet and spices. On the palate, it offers lovely tension with crisp, clean acidity, wrapped in an elegant smoothness. This well-balanced wine is characterised by a lovely length on the palate

Production
Crafted by Château du Cèdre, this Malbec comes from sustainably farmed vineyards on the limestone terraces of Cahors. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness, then destemmed and gently crushed before a cool maceration to capture vivid colour and fresh blueberry‑led aromatics. Fermentation takes place in temperature‑controlled stainless steel to preserve purity, followed by a short maturation in tank to maintain brightness and supple texture. The result is a modern, fruit‑forward expression of Cahors with lifted aromatics and a smooth, approachable structure.
