Cahors Le Lac-aux-Cochons 2020

- 93 points -

From a single parcel of Malbec planted on red clay soils, the 2020 Le Lac aux Cochons was macerated for 30 days and matured for two years in wooden tanks. Evoking a complex, deep and perfumed bouquet of cassis, mulberries, spices and dark wild berries mingled with lovely notes of cedar, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and textured, with a seamless mid-palate, good depth at the core and a long, ethereal finish with chalky dry extracts. This gourmand, sappy Cahors is ready to drink but has a decade ahead of it.
