Winemaker Notes

The wine bursts with aromas of spices and dark plums with hints of cacao. The mouth is robust and round, with flavors of ripe black fruit, dried raspberries, dried mint and hints of cacao powder and smoke.

Wine Enthusiast

Elegantly structured, boasting rich blackberry fruits and spice, this wine from one of the Vigouroux estates is smooth and developing well. The tannins and smoky character of the Malbec, blended with a touch of Merlot and Tannat, is sure to lead to a velvet, ripe wine.

The passionate work of a vinegrower-winemaker family, on this clay, low lime terroir that is predestined to vinegrowing, transforms the noble Malbec grapes to give an atypical Cahors in a very personal style. Chateau de Haute-Serre is recognisable by its deep ruby robe that is always clear and shiny. In addition to the, often candied, red fruit are nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla and roasted bean aromas from new barrels. On the palate the tannins are velvety, very refined and dense.

Southwest, France

Within the Southwest of France, this is the one region outside of Argentina that is today almost exclusively dependent on Malbec. Locally the variety is called Cot, and makes a dense, earthy and black fruit dominant red wine. Both the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean both have a strong influence on the climate of this region.

Malbec Wine

View all products

Celebrated for its bold flavors and supple texture, Malbec has enjoyed runaway success in Argentina since the late 20th century. The grape originated in Bordeaux, France, where it historically contributed color and tannin to blends. A French agronomist, who saw great potential for the variety in Mendoza’s hot, high-altitude landscape, brought Malbec to Argentina in 1868. Somm Secret—If you’re trying to please a crowd, Malbec is generally a safe bet with its combination of dense fruit and soft tannins.
