"An exemplary Cahors

"Intense dark purple color. The nose is pure and young, with aromas of violet, blackberry, blackcurrant and licorice, all supported by light oak. The palate is dense and concentrated, still young but with well-polished tannins, fine oak integration and a lively freshness balancing density, dark berry flavors with sweet spice and licorice leading to a long, powerful finish." (Andreas Larsson). Impressive!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated (guide 2022) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

Jean-Luc Baldès continues the family saga of this historic Cahors estate. Most of the 65 hectares are located on the third terraces of Vire, on the banks of the Lot. The rest is on the causse and its whiter soils. While the intelligent selection of plots reflects the estate's heritage, the prince-probus blend gives an accurate idea of the modern, colorful and juicy Cahors. An essential address.

About the wine:

A classic Malbec concentrate with a fine, powdery structure, racy contours and tannins refreshed by the vintage.

About the domain :

Jean-Luc Baldès was a standard-bearer for Cahors Malbec, striving to express the full potential of his vineyards on the second, third and fourth terraces of the Lot. A guardian of the vineyard's history, the "black wine" and cuvée Probus were for a time Cahors' best-known wines. Today, the estate is focusing on wine tourism and trying to produce more modern cuvées, without really succeeding. We are therefore removing the star this year.

About the wine:

This estate wine has the structure and richness of the Triguedina vineyard. Tannins are richly balanced by black fruit, while licorice gives a hint of bitterness that will soften. Drink from 2022.
