Description
The principal grape variety of the Cahors appellation, Malbec is also grown in the Bordeaux region. It is also grown in Argentina to produce wines that hugely popular around the world. This early-ripening grape yields a wine that is extremely fruity and fragrant with deep colour and solid tannins that make it well suited to laying down.
In order to express its full potential, this rather capricious grape variety needs to be grown in poor soil and harvested at optimal maturity.
