Clos Triguedina, situated in the heart of the Cahors wine region, has been the cradle of the Baldès family since 1830. A place steeped in history, pilgrims on the Santiago di Compostella route would often stop at Clos Triguedina to eat (me trigo de dina in the Occitan language of southwest France means “I am looking forward to dinner”). Through the generations, the Baldès family’s pioneering spirit has led them to be one of the preeminent wineries of the Cahors wine region, passing their knowledge, determination, and passion on from father to son. Today, Jean-Luc Baldès, together with his wife Sabine and daughter Juliette, continue the work of his forebears and has elevated the wines to the highest level in the region.

Wine EnthusiastAlthough this is pure Malbec, the wine is generous rather than structured. It sings of ripe tannins and warm blackberry fruits. The wine shows off the fruity side of the grape, meaning it will be ready to drink from 2023.
Malbec is a red wine grape originating from France but finding success in Argentina. Known for its dark, inky color, Malbec wines from Argentina are full-bodied with rich fruit flavors like blackberry and plum. They often have moderate to high tannins and pair well with grilled meats. While Argentina is the primary producer, Malbec is also grown in other regions globally. The grape struggled in the cooler Bordeaux climate but thrives in Argentina's warmer conditions, especially in the high-altitude vineyards of the Andes. The wines are generally approachable in their youth but can age well, developing complexity and softer tannins over time.
