WINE DESCRIPTION

Château du Cèdre Marcel Malbec is a premium red wine produced by Château du Cèdre, a renowned winery located in the Cahors appellation of southwestern France. The wine is made from 100% Malbec grapes grown in the winery's vineyards, which are known for their limestone and clay soils that impart unique flavors and aromas to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a full-bodied and richly flavored Malbec with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of oak. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the classic style of Cahors Malbec.

An excellent expression of Malbec from the Cahors region of France.
