2023 | Chateau de Gaudou 'Puro Malbec' | Cahors Maison CR elegant and expressive with aromasThis ancient, 17th century chteau located about an hour from the city of Cahors is making some fantastic and well priced cuves. This is a young savory Malbec from vineyards around Cahors, known as Cot du Lot It is soft, packed with black fruits and with layers of spicy acidity and just a tannic touch. More on the light bodied, this is a wonderful Malbec to drink slightly chilled at any time of the year on its own or with a variety of meats and cheeses.
