Cahors is a red wine from the Cahors region in the Southwest of France. It has a deep garnet color and a robust, tannic flavor profile. The bouquet reveals notes of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, with hints of earth and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins and flavors of ripe berries, black pepper, and a touch of leather. Cahors pairs well with red meats, game, and rich stews.
Cahors is the birthplace of Malbec, where the grape is known as "Cot." Its bold and tannic reds were a favorite of Pope John XXII during the Avignon Papacy.
Cahors is perfect with "Duck Confit," the wine's tannins and depth complementing the rich duck, or enjoy it with "Braised Short Ribs," where its boldness matches the meat.
