"Intense dark purple color. The nose is pure and young, with aromas of violet, blackberry, blackcurrant, and licorice, all supported by a slight woodiness. The palate is dense and concentrated, still young but with well-polished tannins, fine oak integration and a lively freshness balancing the density, black berry flavors with sweet spices and licorice leading to a long and powerful finish." (Andreas Larsson). Impressive!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2022 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Jean-Luc Baldès continues the family saga of this historic Cahors estate. A large part of the 65 hectares is located on the third terraces of Vire, on the banks of the Lot River. The rest is located on the Causse plateau and its whiter soils. While the intelligent parcel selection reflects the estate's heritage, the Prince-Probus blend gives a true impression of modern Cahors wine: colorful and juicy. An essential address.

Wine rated (2021 guide) 88/100
Rated estate (2022 guide) Cité
About wine:
A fine Malbec concentrate, classic with a powdery, delicate structure, racy contours, and tannins refreshed by the vintage.
About the estate:
Jean-Luc Baldès was a standard-bearer for Cahors Malbec, striving to express the potential of his vineyard located on the second, third, and fourth terraces of the Lot. Guardians of the vineyard's history, the "black wine" and the Probus cuvée made Cahors famous for a time. Today, the estate is focusing on wine tourism and attempting to produce more modern cuvées, without really succeeding. We are therefore removing the star this year.

Wine rated (2021 guide) 91/100
Rated estate (2022 guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Enthusiast)
About wine:
This estate wine displays a structure and richness that come from the Triguedina vineyard. The tannins are richly balanced by black fruits, while licorice adds a hint of bitterness that will soften over time. Drink from 2022 onwards.
