Château du Port 2009 Cuvée Prestige Malbec (Cahors)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $25
Dry, firmly tannic wine, dominated by mint and coffee flavors along with wood. The fruit underneath has a suggestion of ripe blackberry flavors but will need at least 3 years to come out. It is a powerful, complex wine for aging.  — R.V.  (3/1/2012)

Château du Port 2010 Cuvée Prestige Malbec (Cahors)

  1. $25
Using fruit sourced from old vines, this firm, tannic and concentrated wine has a fine balance between the dense texture and bright black-plum and berry flavors. Given its tannic structure, it needs to age, although it would be a great accompaniment to a stew if consumed now.  — R.V.  (3/1/2013)

Soft and already approachable, this is a red-fruited wine, with ripe, well-integrated tannins and juicy acidity. It’s round, fruity and ready to drink.  — R.V.  (3/1/2013)

Château du Port 2007 Cuvée Prestige Malbec (Cahors)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $22
The balance between the firm tannins and ripe fruit works well here. The texture is dense, rough at the edges but with good layers of wood, acidity and dry tannins. The aftertaste has welcome freshness.  — R.V.  (12/15/2010)

Château du Port 2008 Tertre Perdigous Malbec-Merlot (Cahors)

A lean wine, the tannins dominating the fruit. The wine is all bone and no flesh.  — R.V.  (12/15/2010)
