"French Malbec”, an anglicism which is intended to be a mark of recognition and offers a notion of offbeat nationalism. “Cahors is not dead. 190 years of family history at Clos Triguedina encourage us to visit all the colours of Malbec. This wine presents itself as its most popular expression. Éelegant and flexible but direct and unambiguous. Yes, it is a living paradox. Vineyard - Appellation: Cahors, South-West. Blend: 100% Malbec, young vines. Terroir: 2nd Terrace; clay-siliceous and clay-limestone subsoil. Vineyard work & Winemaking: Very careful work in the vineyard with an eco-responsible commitment to soil preservation. Very rigorous vinification. Tasting: Intense nose of fresh fruit with morello cherry, redcurrant, spices and liquorice. The mouth is supple, with finesse and the crunchiness of the fruit. Ample, it offers a nice length. Food/Wine Pairing: French Malbec will be the ideal companion for an impromptu dinner. HAS Pair with appetizers, cold meats, grilled meats or even a cheese platter.
