"Malbec, a slightly rustic French grape that has become a star of Argentine reds, now plays a minor blending role in Bordeaux. It is making its last major stand in France in Cahors, a southwestern region, where it is Domaine de Lagrezette's key player. The owner, Alain Dominique Perrin, a former Cartier executive, has introduced 2003 Zette, a gutsy malbec for everyday use. Softened by Merlot, it hints at Le Pigeonnier, his deluxe blend." --Howard G. Goldberg, The New York Times
Intense Red, violet color, red fruit aroma combined with vanilla, coffee and toast due to its stay in oak vats for 7 months. Good tannin ripeness and of great persistence.
This marks the U.S. debut of Torino’s organic line called Cuma, which means clean and pure in a native language. The wine is indeed that; it’s a grapy, fun wine with ribald boysenberry fruit. And with air it shows some softness that makes it go down easy.
