    Winemaker Notes

    Dashing with nice fruity overtones, the Malbec du Clos is created to be subtle and easy to drink young. It is the best way to discover the round and smooth wines of Cahors and the original French Malbec. On the nose there are elegant and generous aromas of dark fruits, while the palate is rich and smooth with fruity overtones.

    Pairs well with grilled meats, juicy steaks or cheese.

    Clos Triguedina, situated in the heart of the Cahors wine region, has been the cradle of the Baldès family since 1830. A place steeped in history, pilgrims on the Santiago di Compostella route would often stop at Clos Triguedina to eat (me trigo de dina in the Occitan language of southwest France means “I am looking forward to dinner”). Through the generations, the Baldès family’s pioneering spirit has led them to be one of the preeminent wineries of the Cahors wine region, passing their knowledge, determination, and passion on from father to son. Today, Jean-Luc Baldès, together with his wife Sabine and daughter Juliette, continue the work of his forebears and has elevated the wines to the highest level in the region.

    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.

    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.
