Wine Down Wednesday features 2016 Crocus L’Atelier Malbec de Cahors
The Renaissance man, Paul Hobbs owns and operates this adventurous project, @crocuswines in southwest France🇫🇷. Most of us pups think Malbec’s home is Mendoza Argentina but it really all started in Cahors France. Paul is a master with this grape, he tames the tannins and makes a delicious silky style. He has been called the Steve Jobs of the Wine World🍇🌎, that’s kind of impressive!
Beautiful aromas of violets and wildflowers. On the palate, think of black cherry mixed with fresh blueberries and black current jam. I love this wine with nice hearty winter meals. Like a nice brisket stew🥣. Yummy combination!
