Malbec to be sipping all summer long, it's the result of months of effort of searching for a super-drinkable, value-driven red to match with grilled fare. A wine that, in addition to coming from one of Cahors’ leading talents, will match up with and stand up to the most beautifully marinated fare – sans any heartbreak about what the wine set you back. Loved as much for it’s just not being “out there”, as it is for its inky black intrigue, it’s everything Cahors (but the price tag), all the way down to the final touch of mineral and spice. The kind of wine that keeps the palate salivating for more, it’s mystery meets spicy to make for one grill-happy red. Inside Fact: Malbec was planted in the Lot river valley in what is now southwestern France almost 2000 years ago; we fondly call it the "grape of 10,000 names," including Auxerrois, Cot Noir, Pressac, and Malbec in France alone. Tasting Notes VARIETAL True to varietal, this Malbec is easy to drink with just about anything. The Malbec dark berry fruit is lush, but not too heavy. It’s a medium weight wine in the APPELLATION mouth with a moderate finish that lingers just enough to pair perfectly with a Vin de Pays du Comte Tolosan plate of cheeses and nuts, but not over power it. ALCOHOL 12.50 SIZE 750ml BLEND Malbec The Story to Know Jean-Luc Baldès is one of the leading figures in the Cahors wine region. The determined attitude of this talented wine-grower has led him to acquire a profound understanding of how to get the best out of his lands and make great wines from them. Jean-Luc Baldès, the seventh successive generation in charge of the estate, has known how to take his varied range of wines to the highest level of quality while maintaining the best of his forebears wine-growing traditions. He would be the first to say how much he owes to the teaching of his father and grandfather as well as his wine studies in Burgundy and the Bordeaux region. He also had several professional experiences of vine cultivation in the Médoc and Barsac regions. All this inspired him with a desire for the Clos Triguedina vineyards to acquire the best techniques he had learned - in vine growing, vinification and the production of specific wines - to be directed throughout at placing the highest demands on quality. Today, Jean-Luc Baldès and his wife Sabine reap the fruits of their labour but never fail to stress the importance of their team and its invaluable work. Their wines are supplied to nationally-famed restaurants and to the country's highest institutions: the President of the Republic at the Elysée Palace, the Senate and the National Assembly, and individual Ministries. They also receive regular reviews in the media, including mentions of their numerous successes. As a wine-grower, Jean-Luc Baldès is recognised as a specialist in the Malbec grape variety. Now in his 50s and the father of five children, he can take justifiable pride in both his professional and personal achievements in life. Perfect Pairings Think grilling time: anything basted, marinated, or seasoned, then thrown on the grill - for the vegetarians, think grilled veggies (potatoes, kabobs, zucchini, and more), or a tofu or black bean burger. Ratings 93 Insider Points Reviews I love to barbeque; it’s one of my favorite hobbies and passions. All those pleasant summers’ evenings get spent marinating, seasoning and basting, just working with the fire and food to try and get just the right flavors to show through. It always leaves me searching for that one bottle of red wine that will match up, stand up and won’t make me cry when I get the credit card statement. This delicious bottle, made by Jean Luc Baldes, one of our favorite Cahors producers, fits that description to a “T”. The importer is telling us that this is an invino exclusive, so we’re pretty sure that you won’t find this one in your neighborhood store. This is one of the tastier, most drinkable Malbecs I’ve seen in a long time. Appearance –wise, it’s definitely a Malbec with an inky black color and a bright ruby rim. The nose is very appealing, full of black fruits, coffee, some light smoky notes and Asian spices. In the mouth, there’s an array of flavors, black cherry, plum, some minerality and lots of pure, pure fruit. Surprisingly spicy and supple, there’s some crisp acidity that will make it match up with a wide range of foods and flavors. Its fresh fruitiness keeps it light and interesting. The tannins are very soft and the wine leaves your mouth watering. It’s a perfect summertime red wine. I’ll be slugging it all summer long at my house and you should, too! -PM.

Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux Georges, Bertrand-Gabriel and Charles Vigouroux Maison Georges Vigouroux A Family saga with a main theme, the production of black wine in Occitanie For four generations, the “black wine” has been flowing through theVigouroux family’s veins. If the passing down of winemaking know-how is important in viticulture, the passion for Malbec is even more remarkable in heredity, guiding the family since 1887 on the historic Cahors vineyards and beyond, in search of a terroir/grape variety symbiosis. Owners of 4 prestigious wineries in Occitanie, the Vigouroux family are the specialists in France when it comes to producing Malbec wines. With focus on the black wine since 1887, their Chateaux offer various styles of wines, from the plateau to the different terraces… A know-how practiced for several generations and an expertise in the Malbec grape variety, historic chateaux, a growing brands, a qualitative distribution, completed by an exceptional agritourism offer, Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux is open to the world, striving to preserve his roots and regional values.

  • South West France Buying Report “Mille Cent Kilos, Oui
    The Sampler – South West France Buying Report “Mille Cent Kilos, Oui Monsieur, Mille Cent. Pourquoi est-ce qu’il rigolé?” Hello folks, and welcome to our little trip report following a recent marathon trip across the south west of France in search of wines of character and value. If that’s not what you were looking for, for instance a recipe for boiled asparagus, or how to fix a leaking roof, I’d check your typing and re-google. Still here? Good, lets get stuck in. The Planning So why bother? Well, the wines of south west France are not that well known in the UK and so not that many agency businesses bother to stock many wines from the area. Those that do seem to have largely stuck with the same old names for many years (Montus in Madiran, Cedre and Clos Treguidina in Cahors), and though good, a lot of these wines have recently become extremely expensive. Once you move away from Madiran and Cahors, there is almost nothing available at all, yet there are a vast range of different terroirs and plenty of young vignerons keen to make a name for themselves. So we thought we would have a look and see if we could find something. Sebastien was on the phone for at least 3 months in the preparation, talking to winemakers, journalists, local experts, mates, random people, relatives, and dogs, and after a bit of to-ing and fro-ing we agreed a list of about 30 estates to visit. The hope was to find wines in one (or more) of three categories: • Great value wines which over-deliver when compared to their more famous competitors.

  • Here's How the Other Three Styles of Red Wines Relate to Fresh
    14_544535_ch10.qxd 8/18/05 12:24 PM Page 147 Fresh, Spicy Reds Savory, firm reds with lots of personality, such as Dolcettos, Barberas, some Zinfandels, cru Beaujolais wines, Argentine Malbecs, Chilean Carmenères, and other wines ou want a red wine with character. Something more intense than a mild-mannered red, more compelling than a pretty, fruity red but nothing very imposing or powerful. A spicy red is probably just what you’d enjoy. Spicy reds are what we reach for almost every evening when Ywe want red wine. They’re wines that go well with the kinds of foods we like to eat—medium-substantial foods with savory flavor and often a little bit of heat. They’re good when they’re young and fresh, andCOPYRIGHTED they offer us lots of variety. MATERIAL The spicy red category encompasses wines from dozens of grape varieties and just about every wine-producing country on earth. SUBTLETY,BE GONE! The fresh, spicy style of red wines combines two main taste char- acteristics: 14_544535_ch10.qxd 8/18/05 12:24 PM Page 148 148 | WINE STYLE ■ Medium to high intensity of aroma and flavor ■ Assertive but not imposing structure Let’s deal with the structural characteristics first. Wines in this style are usually medium-bodied to nearly full-bodied, and they do have perceptible tannin and/or acidity. Their alcohol can be medi- um or high, but even if it’s high, it doesn’t define the wines by mak- ing them generous or sweet or causing them to give a “hot” sensa- tion in the rear of the mouth.

  • THE HISTORY of MALBEC Argentina's Flagship Grape
    Wines of Argentina – Vinos de Argentina A.C Paseo Sarmiento 212, 2 floor, Mendoza, Argentina [email protected] - www.winesofargentina.com THE HISTORY OF MALBEC Argentina’s flagship grape By Pablo Lacoste The history of Malbec reflects the cultural itinerary of a grape on its intercontinental journey. It is a return trip from Europe to The Americas, and finally back the Old World, enriched with the force of nature, the climates and soils of the Southern Cone. It is a journey full of vitality and dramatic tension, marked by human passions, the power struggles and utopias, the victories and defeats. Kings and nobles, Templars and musketeers, soldiers and marines, British, French, Spanish and other nations‟ forces all played their part. On an uncertain path, with stretches of darkness and silence, alternating with those of brightness and sounds of music and joy. To truly understand the success of this grape, all this must be taken into consideration, since Malbec is embedded in world history. 1. MALBEC AND ITS ORIGINS The historical centre of Malbec production was originally in Cahors, a town located in southwest France near the Pyrenees. It is found close to the major wine regions of France: Bordeaux is 200 miles east of Cahors. Location of Cahors, first Malbec growing area According to the current research on the subject, Cahors is where Malbec was originally grown, and according to tradition the vine entered the region in the second century of this era (circa 150 Wines of Argentina – Vinos de Argentina A.C Paseo Sarmiento 212, 2 floor, Mendoza, Argentina [email protected] - www.winesofargentina.com AD), from Italy, introduced by the Romans.
