Chateau du Cedre, "Le Cedre", Cahors 2020	93 James Suckling Lovely nose with dark cherries, boysenberries and stemmy herbs with a hint of dark earth and white pepper. Quite a narrow delivery with medium to full body and fine tannins. Lively and tense on the mid-palate, showing crunchy blueberries and a flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Already approachable now, but can hold. 93 Wine Enthusiast From one of the leading estates in Cahors, this wine expresses an abundance of rich black-plum fruits. It is a fine, balanced wine with structured tannins and intense potential. The wine will be ready from 2026. Organic.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
