Clos Triguedina Cahors 1971 - Wooden box 1 bottle
The 1971 vintage in Cahors is one of the very good vintages of the Cahors appellation. This 1971 Clos Triguedina offers very nice aromas of tobacco and spices around notes of candied black fruits and on the palate, a beautiful structure with a long finish.
Clos Triguedina has belonged to the Baldès family since 1830: it is one of the most beautiful estates in Cahors and one of the founders of the appellation. It is now in the hands of Jean-Luc Baldès, a fine connoisseur of the Malbec grape variety, who creates superb single-vineyard cuvées of Cahors wines such as New Black Wine and Probus.
If you are looking for a bottle from 1971 or more generally a wine from a vintage of a birth year to celebrate an anniversary, the wines of Clos Triguedina are a great choice.
