Château du Cèdre Juvéniles Cahors Malbec, a fresh, lighter, and immediately approachable Cahors Malbec created in partnership with Paris's iconic Juvéniles wine bar, bright ruby-purple with fresh blackberry, plum, and raspberry on the nose, juicy and smooth on the palate with soft tannins and a lively, fruit-forward finish.
Tasting Notes
Bright ruby-purple with youthful vibrancy. Fresh blackberry, plum, and raspberry with hints of violets, spice, and gentle earthiness on the nose. Juicy and smooth on the palate with soft tannins and flavours of dark berries, black cherry, and subtle pepper flowing into a lively, fruit-forward finish. Lighter and more lifted than traditional Cahors, yet still showing the regional depth of the Verhaeghe family's organically farmed terroir.
