Crocus L'Atelier Malbec de Crocus 2022

Crocus Winery is nestled in the Cahors region, southeast of Bergerac along the Lot River. It takes its name from the delicate crocus flower, the source of saffron. Malbec is the predominant grape here, thriving in the warm climate. The family has been producing wine since the mid-19th century. In 2009, they joined forces with renowned winemaker and Malbec specialist Paul Hobbs. Tradition and modernity unite in Crocus wines. Sustainably produced, hand-harvested, and lovingly aged, they bear a distinctive signature. L'Atelier showcases the classic Cahors Malbec with a touch of modernity. Grown at 170-240m on terraces and matured without wood, L'Atelier is a fruity and approachable wine. Deep violet, dark berries, juicy cherry, plum, and earthy tannins define its character.
