South-West of France Château Lamartine

Our committee's review

A standout name in Cahors and a driving force behind the appellation’s revival, Château Lamartine (1 star in the French wine guide RVF) offers a beautifully refined expression of Malbec, organically grown and far from the bold, rustic styles of the past.

Its wines showcase remarkable finesse, embodying a fresh, modern take on Cahors that continues to impress. Now led by the new generation, Lise and Benjamin Gayraud, the estate is redefining what Malbec can be—elegant, balanced, and irresistibly seductive.

La Cuvée Particulière perfectly embodies this fresh, modern take on the Cahors appellation. Sourced from old vines and aged extensively in barrels, it showcases remarkable precision and balance. A true delight that every wine lover should have in their cellar—especially at this price!

Expertly aged in barrels and shaped by the 2020 vintage’s optimal ripeness, the Cahors Cuvée Particulière Red reveals refined graphite notes and the vibrant freshness of its terroir. Pure and meticulously crafted, it delivers a juicy, full-bodied structure with well-balanced tannins, complemented by subtle oak that adds depth without overpowering the wine. Made from 90% Malbec, sourced from the estate’s oldest vines, this is a Cahors built for aging. Give it another two years to pair with a ribeye steak or a classic beef bourguignon, and it will evolve beautifully over the next decade. Decant for an hour or serve in large glasses. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.

The new face of Cahors, embodied in this exceptional cuvée at a great price.
