This grand cuvée offers a blossoming nose of red and black fruits, with lovely subtle woody notes. Peppery and licorice-flavored, the complex and refined palate presents noticeable tannins on the finish, which is enchantingly long. This triple gold medal winner will be the ideal companion for a delicious duck breast with orange sauce!

Bettane & Desseauve
3-star rating (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Alain-Dominique Perrin has worked hard to make the magnificent Lagrézette estate one of the flagships of Cahors' revival. The progress made since the renovation of the cellar is clear to see: the wines have gained in elegance and the fruit is better highlighted by the aging process. We particularly appreciate the château and clos-marguerite vintages, which are remarkable this year.
