Château du Cèdre 2008 GC Malbec (Cahors)

Country: France / GC
Variety: Malbec Southwest France
Winery: Château du Cèdre / Cahors

Intense wood-aged wine. The wood is still apparent in this intense, youthful wine, although the richly concentrated mint and black fruit flavors are sure to come through in a year or two. This is certainly ageworthy, a wine that packs all the right structure and dark fruit character.
