Château du Cèdre Extra Libre 12 Mois

Château du Cèdre Extra Libre 12 Mois

Château du Cèdre Extra Libre 12 Mois is a special wine from the renowned Château du Cèdre in the Cahors wine region of southwest France. This wine is a tribute to craftsmanship and is characterized by a unique 12-month aging period, resulting in an extraordinary and refined wine experience.

"Extra Libre" refers to the special and free approach to winemaking at Château du Cèdre. This approach gives the winemaker the freedom to reveal the best of the terroir and grapes, while respecting the wine's natural characteristics.

The wine is made primarily from the Malbec grape, known locally as "Côt," supplemented with a small percentage of Merlot and/or Tannat. After careful vinification, the wine matures for 12 months in oak barrels, developing a wonderful depth and complexity.

In the glass, Château du Cèdre Extra Libre 12 Mois reveals a deep ruby red color and offers an inviting bouquet of ripe red berries, blackberries and subtle spicy notes. The taste is rich and full of silky tannins and an elegant balance between fruity and spicy notes. The long-lasting aftertaste is a true delight for the senses.

AOC Cahors

The Cahors AOC was founded in 1971 and is exclusively reserved for red wines made from Malbec grapes. The specifications for the appellation allow two secondary grape varieties: Tannat and Merlot, but Malbec must represent at least 70% of the blend.

Cahors is the cradle of Malbec. Another specific feature of the vineyards is the great diversity of terroirs, which makes it possible for winegrowers to make original Malbec wines.
