Product Notes

Château du Cèdre Cahors Extra Libre wine hails from the famed vintages of Cahors, France. This red wine is notable for its rich intensity, offering a sensuous palette of dense blackcurrant, plum and floral notes. Refined in oak vats, it possesses a firm structure that carries a delectable lingering finish. This sustainable wine follows a 'Extra Libre' process, eschewing sulphites and delivering pure, natural flavours. Perfect for red meat pairings, particularly lamb or veal roasts, it's a luxurious treat that sidelines chemical intervention to let the natural beauty of the Malbec grape shine from nose to finish.
