A blend of 80% malbec and 20% merlot, Clos La Coutale is made from well-established and revered vines in the Lot Valley in south-west France. Well structured, full and rounded and with significant hedgerow berry fruit length, this is as good a representation of the Cahors region as any. This wine has also spent a year in wooden casks which has helped it develop levelled out tannins and a hint of vanilla to balance out its ripe fruitiness.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Ripe stewed red berry fruits on the nose with a voluptuous and juicy palate with blackberry fruit, ripe leathery tannins and a freshing burst of acidity.
