Château du Cèdre, in the heart of the Cahors appellation, must be regarded as the region's leading light; the refined Malbec grape reaches new heights here. Deep, dark and elegant, Pascal and Jean-Marc Verhaeghe’s wines reveal the superb terroir of their estate.
The vineyard is essentially organic without having the Ecocert stamp on the label. Since 1988, they practice environmental friendly viticulture: no herbicides are used, there is no spraying against rot and only organic compost is used. A small amount of Tannat and Merlot (5% each) is used in the regular cuvée (formally called "Prestige") but the flagship wine of Château du Cèdre is 100% Malbec.
Dark red colour. Very fruity nose, both powerful and elegant. Very round and soft on the palate with great fruit intensity.
100% Malbec
The less serious little brother from Chateau du Cedre, perfect with some cheese, pizzas, grilled meat or pasta.
