This leading estate in Cahors in South West France has been owned by the Baldès family since 1830. Jean-Luc Baldès, the current owner has 57 hectares from which to make his portfolio of wines which includes small amounts of white and rosé although it is the red Cahors which shapes the estate reputation. To this end, the vineyards - some of which are of considerable age - are planted mainly with malbec grapes as well as merlot and tannat. The style is structured and generously flavoured.
