Chateau Cedre 'Cedríc' Cahors Malbec
Chateau de Cedre
Malbec is the star here, sourced from Château du Cèdre, one of the benchmark producers in Cahors. Cahors, located in southwest France along the Lot River, is considered the historic home of Malbec — often producing more structured, savory, and perfumed expressions than the plush, fruit-forward styles many people associate with Argentina. While a box might not feel as romantic as a bottle, it’s kind of the perfect format to remind us that wine can be part of everyday life — something to enjoy with a simple meal, not just on special occasions. Have a half glass with lunch, pour a little with dinner, come back to it tomorrow. The beauty of bag-in-box is that the inner bag collapses as you pour, limiting oxygen exposure and keeping the wine fresh far longer than an open bottle. No need to rush — you can enjoy this at your own pace over several weeks (even a month or two) without it falling apart. 😉
