    Description Cahors "Le Lac-aux-Cochons"

    Estate

    Domaine Combel-La-Serre is a family estate known for its expertise in producing wines from the South-West of France, with a particular focus on expressing the unique terroir of Cahors.

    Vineyard

    Located in the South-West region, the vineyard benefits from a temperate climate and clay-limestone soils, which are ideal for cultivating Malbec, the signature grape of the Cahors appellation.

    Wine

    This 2020 Cahors red is made exclusively from Malbec, offering a structured and intense wine that reflects the typical character of its terroir with finesse and balance.

    Vintage

    The 2020 vintage saw favorable climatic conditions allowing optimal ripeness, ensuring rich aromatic complexity and good freshness.

    Vinification & Aging

    Traditional vinification techniques are used, including extended macerations to extract color and tannins, followed by aging in vats to enhance harmony and balance.

    Grape Variety

    100% Malbec

    Characteristics & Tasting
