Grape

Malbec, Cabernet Franc

Origin
From a single vineyard plot located 200km from Malbec's birthplace in Cahors, this modern Malbec echoes both the Old World rusticity of Cahors, and the inky fruitiness found in the Malbecs of Argentina and the rest of the New World.
Taste
This Malbec keeps its bright, ripe plum and blackberry fruit at the centre of the frame, with the edges softened by restrained use of new oak, and subtle herbaceous notes from the blend's 10% Cab Franc.
Enjoy
Drink at cool room temperature along with pasta, barbecued meats, or a selection of strong cheeses and gamey terrines.

Press Reviews

  • ...

    "A plummy, quite structured Malbec, with the 10% of Cabernet Franc in the blend lending a bit of extra aromatic lift to the nose. Attractive, slightly sweet fruit and a touch of oak for depth. Really pretty good stuff for the two-bottle price. Rating: 86/100 Goes with: Red meat & Dark game."

  • "The prolific Languedoc producer Jean-Claude Mas is forever coming up with startlingly well-priced wines in a bewildering array of labels and retailers. At the offer price of £6.49, this is stonking good value: lots of classically plummy fruit from the malbec grape, and a lifted, violet-edged nose from the teeny (10%) drop of cabernet franc. Chunky stuff for rich meaty food."
