🌾 An refined « champêtre » lunch with Châ 🌾 An refined « champêtre » lunch with Château Haut–Monplaisir AOP Cahors. 
 
Paired with fine French terroir products, we had the pleasure of tasting the 2022 vintage of the @chateauhautmonplaisir Prestige cuvée.
 
The Château Haut–Monplaisir owned by Cathy & Daniel Fournié and their daughter Mathilde, is one of the better-known estates in the Cahors appellation. The 30-hectares vineyard is planted around the family home and the ageing cellars and were certified organic in 2012.
 
This 100% Malbec cuvée is powerful, elegant and generous, with aromas of black fruits and spices, perfectly enhancing the flavors of the French terroir.
 
The Malbec grape, planted in the region for over 2000 years now, expresses itself best in Cahors with its velvety tannins and the freshness that their natural acidity confers on them.
