Its nose of red and black fruits, sweet spices and menthol is pure pleasure. Well-balanced on the palate, with fine, elegant tannins. A great success for this Malbec at its peak!

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
Jean-Luc Baldès continues the family saga of this historic Cahors estate. Most of the 65 hectares are located on the third terraces of Vire, on the banks of the Lot. The rest is on the causse and its whiter soils. While the intelligent selection of plots reflects the estate's heritage, the prince-probus blend gives an accurate idea of the modern, colorful and juicy Cahors. An essential address.

About the wine:
A pleasant Cahors.
About the domain :
Jean-Luc Baldès was a standard-bearer for Cahors Malbec, striving to express the full potential of his vineyards on the second, third and fourth terraces of the Lot. A guardian of the vineyard's history, the "black wine" and cuvée Probus were for a time Cahors' best-known wines. Today, the estate is focusing on wine tourism and trying to produce more modern cuvées, without really succeeding. We are therefore removing the star this year.

About the wine:
This is one of the parcel-based cuvées in the Baldès Trilogy, which brings out the different terroirs by terrace. The wine shows the rich side of Malbec on a sunny red clay-limestone parcel on the second terrace. It's a powerful evocation of ripe black fruit, juicy acidity and dense, concentrated tannins, all contained in an elegant frame. Drink from 2022.
