"A pure Malbec aged between concrete and oval vats. The aging process allows the fruit of a radiant grape to shine through: a 2023 vintage bursting with luscious flesh and crisp tannins, full of verve on the palate." (Le Guide RVF 2025)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
A classic property of the appellation, producing robust, tannic Cahors wines, at the expense of a certain austerity in the basic wines. The Expression cuvée, made from the best vines on the third terrace, is of exemplary consistency.

About the estate:
According to legend, the branches of a hundred-year-old oak tree provided shelter for the romantic trysts of a beautiful woman named Martine. In 2016, Alain Gayraud handed over the reins to his children Lise and Benjamin, who brought with them a wealth of experience gained abroad, to run this estate with ancient origins (1883), located on the edge of the Lot-et-Garonne department. The vineyard covers 37.5 hectares, facing south. A pillar of the Cahors appellation.

A pure Malbec aged between concrete and oval vats. The aging process allows the fruit of a radiant grape to shine through: a 2023 vintage bursting with pulpy flesh and crisp tannins in a lively palate.
About the estate:
The future of the Gayraud family estate is now in the hands of Alain's children, Benjamin and Lise. This classic estate produces wines that are well-balanced and true to the Cahors style. The new generation brings more energy and modernity to the vintages, which focus on fruitiness.

About wine:
A touch of funk on the nose. Aromas of blueberries and Guinness stout, with a hint of lively red acidity from tamarind and tamarillo. Tannins reminiscent of autumn.

Note and opinion by Mr. GILLES D. Published on 12/11/2025
Tandem offers a 100% Malbec that is a little rustic but well-made and vibrant, favoring the crispness of the fruit and the suppleness of the texture, carried by powerful, silky tannins and a chalky minerality that brings extra energy and extends the finish with finesse. Still reasonably priced. Pairs well with a traditional Toulouse cassoulet. Rating = 3.9.
