MYR 130.00

Type: Red Wine (Organic / Minimal Intervention / Classic Malbec)

Region: Cahors, South-West France

Grapes: 100% Malbec (Côt)

Alcohol ABV: 12.5%–13%

Tasting Profile and Key Notes

Aroma:
A fresh and approachable expression of Cahors Malbec, showing aromas of black cherry, blackberry, plum, and red berries. Floral notes of violet combine with hints of earth, black pepper, and subtle spice. Compared with the more powerful traditional style of Cahors Malbec, Marcel presents a brighter, more elegant and fruit-driven personality.

Palate:
Medium-bodied with a smooth, rounded texture and supple tannins. The palate delivers flavours of juicy black cherry, plum, blackberry, and cassis, balanced by refreshing acidity. Gentle earthy notes, spice, and a mineral touch appear on the finish, making the wine both structured and easy-drinking.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested from Château du Cèdre’s vineyards in Cahors and vinified with a focus on preserving fruit purity and freshness. Fermentation is carried out with gentle extraction, followed by ageing that avoids excessive oak influence, allowing the natural character of Malbec to shine. The wine is made in an environmentally conscious style, with the estate practicing organic farming methods and avoiding herbicides.
