Cahors wine is a red wine produced in the Cahors region of southwestern France. Known for its deep color and robust flavor, it is primarily made from the Malbec grape, which is often blended with Merlot and Tannat. The wine typically features dark fruit flavors, earthy notes, and a firm tannic structure, making it suitable for aging. The Cahors region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to Roman times. The unique terroir, characterized by its limestone and clay soils, contributes to the wine's distinctive character. Cahors wine is often enjoyed with hearty dishes, complementing rich flavors in food.
