Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 30, 2012 - Popped and poured from a magnum at Landmarc in NYC ($82). For a large group of non-winos, this was perfect: soft red and black fruit, some oak, a hint of sweet berries, medium/short finish. The nose and palate were seamlessly in tune, however if I were blinded on this I'd never guess Cahors, that's for sure.

Where's the rusticity? Where's the strength? Where's the structure? This is Cahors made for the South American Malbec lovers, not for someone like me who's looking for terroir.

But, as I said, perfect for a group of non-winos, easy to drink, and good with our steaks.
