Clos La Coutale Cahors Malbec is a premium red wine produced by the renowned winery Clos La Coutale in the Cahors appellation of France. The vineyards are situated on the hillsides of the Lot River Valley, where the grapes benefit from the unique terroir and microclimate. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including hand-harvesting and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a rich and complex wine with notes of dark fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. This wine is a perfect representation of the classic Malbec style, with a full-bodied and robust character that pairs well with hearty dishes and aged cheeses.

This Clos La Coutale Cahors Malbec offers a ripe and juicy nose of blackberry, blueberry, and plum fruits, with a subtle hint of spice.On the palate, this full-bodied wine has a ripe, fleshy texture, with flavors of dark fruits, tobacco, and herbs. The finish is long and savory, with a touch of dark chocolate. Enjoy with beef and lamb dishes, or aged cheeses.
