Mas des Etoiles

Cahors Malbec from South West France's limestone heartland.

Mas des Etoiles sits in Cahors, the historic heart of South West France's Haut-Pays region. The appellation has long centered on Malbec, a dark-skinned variety that thrives in the area's limestone soils and continental climate, developing deep color and structured tannins. The winery's Petite Etoile Cahors Malbec exemplifies the region's character—a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator. Cahors Malbec typically carries notes of dark plum and graphite, with the mineral backbone that limestone terroir imparts. The Petite Etoile bottling represents the winery's core expression of this varietal tradition, offering the kind of serious, food-friendly structure that defines quality production in the appellation.
