Gault & Millau

“Named after the quails that live in the vineyard, this intensely fruity wine is ripe and full-bodied. Aromas of truffle, spices, plum, and berries abound. This is a true wine for aging; keep it for at least 7 years, although with its superb fruitiness, it can also be enjoyed sooner. ” (Wine Enthusiast 2011)

Rated estate (2022 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Jean-Luc Baldès carries on the family legacy of this historic estate in Cahors. A large portion of the 65 hectares is located on the third terraces of Vire, along the banks of the Lot River. The remainder lies on the Causse plateau, with its whiter soils. While the thoughtful plot-by-plot selection reflects the estate’s heritage, the “Prince-Probus” blend offers an accurate glimpse of modern Cahors—vibrant and juicy. A must-visit destination.

Wine rated (2012 guide) 15,5/20 (Very good)

About the wine:

This wine offers a very appealing, fruity profile with notes of prune, violet, and spices. Its smoothness on the palate gives it a very endearing character that is best appreciated as it ages.

Rated Estate (2022 Guide) Cité

About the wine:

More expressive and hailing from the Moureau terroir, Petites Cailles stands out for its velvety texture and its cocoa-tinged finish.

About the estate:

Jean-Luc Baldès was a champion of Cahors Malbec, striving to bring out the full potential of his vineyard, located on the second, third, and fourth terraces of the Lot River. As the guardian of the vineyard’s history, the “black wine” and the Probus cuvée once brought fame to Cahors. Today, the estate is focusing on wine tourism and attempting to produce more modern wines, without really succeeding. We are therefore removing the star this year.
