Les Laquets

L'élevage

Les Laquets are characterised by long maturation periods of over 2 years. Racking is kept to a strict minimum, and the lees at the bottom of the barrels continue to nourish the wine throughout the ageing process.

Les cépages

Les Laquets is a remarkable terroir wine. It is the reflection of methodical work. We are keen to find the best growing methods to reveal the purest expression of Cahors. That's why we chose a long time ago to grow all our vines biodynamically, including this magnificent Malbec.

BOARD

Service

Serve this wine at 17°C. Decant 2 hours before serving for the first 4 years.

Dégustation

A very well-balanced wine on the palate with beautifully rounded tannins.

Au nez

On the nose, the bouquet opens with notes of ripe black fruit, blackcurrant, blueberry and prune. There are also hints of smoke and a touch of eucalyptus.

En bouche

The palate is very frank, sanguine and a little rustic on opening. The body is concentrated, the tannins are present but supple and juicy. The finish is an apotheosis of incredible seductive freshness.

Accords

It goes perfectly with gardiane de taureau, confit de canard, poëlée de cèpes, filet mignon de veau aux champignons des bois en croûte, Côte de boeuf, etc.
