Other French Regions

Crisp aperitif wine from 35+ year old Colombard, Gros-Manseng, and Ugni Blanc vines. Light and Sancerre-like with herbaceous notes, citrus, green apple, and minerality. Just 11.5% alcohol - perfect house wine!

Cahors, the medieval region in Southwest France, produces some of country's best red wine bargains. This is Coustarelle's prestige bottling, still wildly affordable. Malbec with a touch of Tannat to add regional authenticity.

Les Calades is 100% Malbec from 40-year-old vines, the estate’s easiest drinking wine, richer than most, and balanced in a way more rustic Cahors can only dream about.

If you've ever wanted to experience Malbec in its origins, Clos La Coutale is a great place to begin. You'll find the character somewhere between the stateliness of Bordeaux and the softer, wilder southern Rhone. Always a great value.
