    Description Cahors "Les Laquets"

    Estate

    Domaine Cosse & Maisonneuve is a renowned estate in the South-West of France, recognized for producing elegant and authentic Cahors wines, primarily focusing on the Malbec grape variety.

    Vineyard

    Located in the South-West region, the vineyard benefits from a typical Cahors argillo-calcareous terroir, providing ideal conditions for Malbec cultivation with good sun exposure and a temperature range favorable to optimal grape ripening.

    Wine

    This 2020 Cahors expresses traditional Malbec characteristics with a solid tannic structure and intense red fruit. The wine is distinguished by its balance between power and elegance.

    Vintage

    The 2020 vintage, marked by balanced climatic conditions, allowed for the harvest of ripe grapes with good aromatic concentration.

    Vinification & Aging

    The vinification follows local traditions with extended maceration to extract color and tannins. Aging in vats or barrels, depending on the parcels, refines the aromatic and structural complexity of the wine.

    Grape Variety

    Malbec

    Characteristics & Tasting

    Tasting

    • Appearance: Deep red with violet hues.
    • Nose: Aromas of ripe red fruits, black cherry, with subtle notes of spices and forest floor.
    • Palate: Present but supple tannic structure, good freshness, persistent finish on fruit flavors with a slight mineral touch.

    Serving

    Serve at 16-18°C. A slight decanting of about 30 minutes is recommended to release aromas and soften tannins, especially for younger vintages.

    Food Pairings

    This Cahors pairs well with a matured rib steak, grilled duck breast, blue cheese such as Roquefort, or a duck confit shepherd's pie.

    Occasions

    Ideal for a friendly meal on a family Sunday, a convivial dinner, or a relaxed business meeting.

    Aging Potential

    Can be enjoyed now but will gain in complexity and finesse over the next 5 to 10 years.
