Chateau du Cedre, "GC", Cahors 2015	95 Wine Enthusiast This wine is powerful in its depth and concentration. Bold tannins, vibrant acidity and strong minerality combine with black plum and berry flavors. This major wine obviously needs to age. Drink from 2023.

Chateau du Cedre, "GC", Cahors 2020	94 Wine Enthusiast The top wine at Château du Cèdre, this is made from pure Malbec. It is a massive, dense wine that has great tannins and black fruits while performing a successful balancing act with acidity. This impressive wine needs time. Drink from 2026. Organic. 95 James Suckling Lots of sweet blue plums, blueberries, wet stones, stemmy herbs and mild spices on the nose. Full-bodied with fine tannins. Ample, expansive but focused at the end. Smartly structured with a good amount of fresh, chalky tannins, showing balance, brightness and energy. Flavorful and lingering finish, but nothing heavy here. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
