MALBEC
Le Capricieux –Playful
The French musical term capricieux means ‘playful‘, and that’s how we’ve always seen the Malbec vines which surprise us every year with their deeply fruity and subtly spicy, plummy, blueberryish wines. We were among the first in our ancient region of Southern France to make this style, from a set of very special vineyards with varied soils and altitudes.
TASTING NOTES
Deeply coloured, soft, plummy and cherryish, with hints of violet. The use of oak is deliberately delicate to maintain the fruity, easy drinkability of the wine. A great marriage of the fruity appeal of Argentine Malbec with the subtler, more structured and mineral-noted examples from Cahors in France.
FOOD STYLE
Perfect with all full-flavoured meat dishes, and is as ideal with traditional French and international cuisine.
