Le Petit Clos is a refined Cahors with a very expressive bouquet that gradually develops notes of red fruit with a hint of licorice. On the palate, it is round and beautifully balanced. A harmonious wine that is a true delight.

It pairs well in its youth with cold cuts, barbecued meats, and fresh cheeses. As it ages, it pairs well with red meats, game, or duck.

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.

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.

A bit of a letdown—this Cahors is decent but too conventional. An old-school wine.
