Tasting Notes

Chocolately woodspice, coffee grounds and smoky vanilla waft over a deep pool of ripe dark berries and dried herbs. This is concentrated and succulent. Right now, with a bit of rare roast beef, Yorkies and gravy, oh yes please. Slightly earthy, succulent blackberry fruit.

More Info

Located in the western corner of Cahors in the village of Lacapelle-Cabanac, third generation winemaker Benoit Aymard took over the reins of his small and slightly dilpidated family domaine in 2014. He enjoys drinking Gamay and Loire reds, and it's this freshness and drinkability that guides his decisions at harvest and in the cellar. Thus, Benoit focuses on emphasising the beautiful fruit that Malbec can offer and moving away from the more austere or over extracted style Cahors and the grape is known for.

FROM THE PRESS

“Black-fruit aromas and a touch of mushroom come from this wine. Vines planted and harvested by hand on land belonging to the producer's mother have produced balanced black fruits and ripe acidity. It is a rich wine, still developing. ”
