Domaine La Calmette

A nose of black fruits, with notes of elderflowers, blood orange, and hints of white pepper... Palate: this is a full-bodied wine, serious and voluptuous in the mouth, with solid tannins, great structure, beautiful freshness, and a long finish. A cuvée crafted for meals and friends!

A blend of two vintages: 100% Malbec from 47-year-old vines farmed organically and planted on a 1-ha plot of deep red clay soils over Kimmeridgian bedrock, at 330 metres altitude, facing east. Harvested by hand, the best grapes from the parcel were selected for this cuvée. Vinification with whole berries in 2017, and destemmed in 2018.
