Really yummy, easy drinker. Super deep inky purple. Some plum, tobacco and cassis. Medium high tannin, and drippy. Medium acid and alcohol, pretty short finish, but enjoyable.

This 2015 deep purple red provided red hue staining tears when swirled in the glass. To the nose this Cahors really gave off big wood notes along with earth & mushrooms. To the mouth this wine provided a medium to full body with a dry finish along with medium tannins. We had this wine as part of a 5 bottle blind taste test where we had the 1988 of this exact same wine to compare. Both did not disappoint but were very noticeably different when tasted.

Lots of ripe red fruit balanced with plenty of tannins and acidity. Medium finish.

Dark purple color and fully structured. Ripe blue and black fruit. Hints of leather, black licorice and tobacco. Tannins are in balance. Quite good

Again, great interplay of dark cassis, tobacco, and just a slight juicy edge.
