Appellation Cahors - AOC

The Cahors Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC), located in the Southwest region of France, is renowned for its robust and elegant wines, primarily crafted from the Malbec grape variety, also known as "Côt" or "Auxerrois." Rooted in clay-limestone soils and benefiting from a sunny climate, Cahors wines are distinguished by intense aromas of dark fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry) and spicy notes.

Cahors wines are recognized for their exceptional aging potential, evolving admirably over time thanks to their well-balanced tannic structure. Perfect to accompany rich dishes like cassoulet or duck breast, they impress with their complexity and depth.
