CHATEAU DE CHAMBERT CAHORS LE CAUSSE 2019

Château de Chambert – Cahors “Le Causse” 2019
by Château de Chambert

A powerful yet beautifully refined Malbec from the limestone plateau (causse) of Cahors — showcasing depth, freshness, and the modern renaissance of this historic French appellation.

Style & Terroir Character

• 100% Malbec grown on high limestone soils above the Lot River

• The causse terroir brings structure, minerality, and natural freshness

• 2019 was an outstanding warm yet balanced vintage, delivering concentration without heaviness

This is Cahors at its finest: dark-fruited, structured, and elegant.

Tasting Notes

Nose
Blackberry, black plum, violet, cocoa powder, crushed stone, subtle spice and cedar

Palate
Full-bodied and velvety — ripe dark fruit, dark chocolate, liquorice, mineral tension, and polished tannins

Finish
Long, fresh, and savoury with lingering fruit and chalky grip

Drinking Window

Drinking beautifully now with a short decant and will continue to evolve for 12–18+ years, gaining earthy and truffle notes with age.

Food Pairing

Excellent with:

• Grilled ribeye or beef tenderloin

• Slow-braised short ribs or beef cheeks

• Lamb with rosemary

• Duck breast or game

• Aged hard cheeses

A superb wine for hearty cuisine and refined dining alike.

Why It Stands Out

• One of Cahors’ benchmark estates

• Limestone-grown Malbec with elegance rather than brute force

• Combines Old World structure with modern polish

In Summary

Deep, mineral-driven, and beautifully balanced — Château de Chambert Le Causse 2019 delivers serious Malbec with finesse, freshness, and long ageing potential. A standout for collectors and premium wine lists.
