Yes, Cahors. The region that launched a thousand Malbecs. This week we are talking about what is in my opinion one of the most underrated, undervalued wines that France has to offer. This region has been copied, counterfeited, and undermined since Roman times. If you have ever said that you don't like Malbec, I am personally challenging you to take it back in this episode.
I used some great resources:
The Oxford Companion to Wine, 4th Edition by Jancis Robinson

And I talk about some great producers:
