Hasn't Malbec come a long way? The grape used to produce the tannic reds of southwest France, then Argentina got hold of it and made it a worldwide star. Not to be out done, France is reclaiming the grape and, with refined techniques and careful handling, showing just how appealing its wines can be. Hervé discovered a plot of 30 year old vines in the Languedoc's Vallée de l'Orb, on soils covered with big boulder-like stones that promote grapes with lovely intensity and ripeness. Impressed, he bagged the lot. Hand harvesting, gentle handling, and just a short time on its skins, have resulted in a silky, ripe, supple wine, with ample fruit tinged with herbs and liquorice. There's all the more juicy ripeness to enjoy in this party size bottle!
