“A full-bodied Malbec, intense and aromatic, with notes of black berries, cherries, plums, lavender, sandalwood, and forest floor. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins. Compact and concentrated, with delicious notes of wild black fruits and spices. Excellent length. Ready to drink or worth cellaring. ” (James Suckling 2022). THE top-of-the-line cuvée from the Cahors appellation.

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.

Rated Estate (2022 Guide) Cité

About the wine:

A beautiful, powerful nose with ripe fruit—cherry—that displays remarkable depth. The body is lovely, with hints of geranium, spices, and cinnamon. The finish is crisp and refreshing.

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.
