"A great entry-level model"

“Round, smooth, and slightly spicy, this wine offers a simple, indulgent, and delightful drinking experience that is best enjoyed while young, paired with roast poultry or pork chops, for example.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

A classic estate in the appellation, where robust, tannic Cahors wines are produced, albeit at the cost of a certain austerity in the entry-level wines. The “Expression” cuvée, made from the best vines on the third terrace, is of exemplary consistency.

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine noted (guide 2026) 1*Star (Very successful wine)

Rated estate (2026 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the wine:

Round, smooth, and slightly spicy, this wine offers a simple, indulgent, and delightful drinking experience that is best enjoyed while young, paired with roast poultry or pork chops, for example.

About the estate:

According to legend, the branches of a century-old oak tree here once provided a secluded spot for the romantic trysts of a beautiful woman named Martine. Since 2016, Alain Gayraud has handed the reins to his children, Lise and Benjamin—who bring with them solid experience gained abroad—to lead this historic estate (founded in 1883), located on the edge of the Lot department. The vineyard covers 37.5 hectares (in the process of converting to organic farming) and faces due south. A pillar of the Cahors appellation.

Wine rated (2026 guide) 90/100

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Rising stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

The future of the Gayraud family estate now lies in the hands of Benjamin and Lise, Alain’s children. The new generation brings greater vitality and modernity to the wines, which focus on fruit. We must commend the progress of this great 37.5-hectare estate, which—aided by climate change—makes the most of its terroir, situated on the three terraces of the Lot River.

Wine rated (2025 guide) 91/100

About the wine:

Well-balanced and concentrated, it reveals aromas of plum, chocolate, orange, and hazelnut on the nose, followed by a full-bodied palate with firm yet ripe tannins. 90% Malbec and 10% Merlot. Made from organically grown grapes. Ready to drink now or suitable for aging.
