Wines like Marquis D’Olt.Marquis D’Olt comes from the region’s top co-operative winery, whose grapes normally go to some of Cahors' most prestigious châteauxAfter patient oak ageing, this wine has developed added layers of toast and vanilla spiceDecanter Magazine notes that “Argentinian Malbec is crafted to be drunk young for its vibrancy, while Cahors is capable of greater structure and longevity” . Lashings of deep plum and blackberry flavours perfectly balanced by gentler notes of oaky spice and liquorice. All the fruit of Argentinian Malbec with the finesse of French winemaking.
