French Malbec is a red wine grape variety that originates from France, particularly the Cahors region in Southwest France. Here, it’s also known as “Côt” and is the star of the region’s “Black Wines.” French Malbec wines typically showcase deep, dark fruit flavours like blackberry and plum, often with notes of violet, leather, or tobacco. These wines tend to be more structured and tannic than their Argentinian counterparts, with high acidity and a robust character that can age well. If you enjoy red wines that are rich, full-bodied, and slightly rustic, wines made from French Malbec could be a great choice for you.
