Producer: Simon Busser
Region: Cahors
Grapes: Côt (Malbec)
Style: Red
ALC: 12.5%
Size: 75cl bottle
Notes: This is a new cuvée for us from Simon. Whole bunches of Côt are macerated before pressing, and the juice is moved into concrete tanks to age for 2 years before bottling. This is a lovely winter warmer that still has lifted fruit – tonic and slightly briny, with a green crunchy edge. Moreish and so delicious!
