The Baldes family first planted vines in Cahors in 1830, identifying the best terraces in the Lot valley. Jean-Luc Baldes has been producing wine at Clos Triguedina for the last 30 years. Jean-Luc has continued the family legacy of innovation and growth and is known as ‘the master of malbec’ in the region. He says “the magic of Clos Triguedina lies in the richness of its soil”, something achieved by farming sustainably and adhering to the restrictions laid down by HVE level 3. In the winery, gentle extraction methods and French oak are used to soften the tannins, allowing vineyard expression to emerge in the glass.

Press Review

''Malbec lovers can be forgiven for sometimes thinking that Argentina is the home of Malbec. It might be now - but Cahors, in southwest France, is very much its spiritual home. This is a particularly fine example of a French Malbec - almost black in the glass, with amazing richness, great fruit (think blackberries) concentration and hints of spice.. For all that there is great subtlety here, and silky tannins.''
