Fantastic power! 2008, but this is a young man who can wait wisely in the cellar, or be drunk now after some time in the decanter.
Fruity, present but supple tannins, well integrated.
Drank with citrus lamb, a very good match.

what exuberance in everything
the nose is incredibly fruity (black cherries...)
the palate is taken by storm, the substance is dense and the melting of the tannins leaves you dreaming.

The deep blood-red color is surprising for a wine over 10 years old. The nose is a little more subdued than the astonishing plum, cocoa and tobacco flavors of this wine, whose powerful roundness and slightly taut finish still give reason to hope for ageing. In short, magnificent. Argentinian Malbec beware!

A very pleasant surprise. The bottle is attractive and beautiful, but the most important thing is what's inside. A dense wine, ready to drink after 1 to 2 hours of opening or decanting, but still promising a long life.

bright garnet-red color, complex spicy nose, blueberry-cassis impression, powerful nervous wine, fine, balanced tannin, probably opened too young, keep for 2/3 more years.
Best served in the evening, so don't hesitate to open 2 hours beforehand.
Tried with duck breast, perfect nervousness on this slightly fatty meat.

It's an excellent wine, a Malbec that's well suited to Cahors. In my opinion, this wine should be decanted two or three hours before tasting, as it's one of those wines you just don't forget.
