Wine Description:
Château du Cèdre Extra Libre is a truly exceptional natural wine, untouched by sulfur. Crafted from the older vines and prime terroirs of the normal Cahors Village by Du Cedre, this wine undergoes a 12-month oak aging process and is completely fermented to dryness. The winery achieves sulfite-free stability only when the barrel is fully fermented. This unfiltered gem exudes a delicate bouquet, dominated by pure and resonant sour cherry reminiscent of Burgundy. Yet, hints of cedarwood, dark fruits, laurel, cassis, sweet limestone, and a touch of musk infuse a Southern charm. The palate showcases clean, aromatic craftsmanship, with fine mint notes complementing the pristine cherry fruit. Silky tannins grace the tongue, leaving a lingering impression of pure, flawlessly executed winemaking in this distinctive style.

Wine Expert Note:

This Château du Cèdre Extra Libre is a delightful blend of Malbec, Merlot, and Tannat. On the nose, the aromas are of ripe cherries, raspberry, and a hint of pepper. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-balanced, with intense flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of earthiness. The tannins are soft and smooth, while the finish is long and persistent. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for a few more years to truly enjoy its complexity.
