"If you are as eager as I am to enter the season of stews, roasts, and game, you cannot go wrong with Clos La Coutale’s earthy and spicy Cahors as your new go-to rouge. Originating halfway between Bordeaux and Montpellier, this blend of mostly Malbec and a splash of Merlot has both the class and rusticity to make a pot that’s been braising for hours on your stove feel at once comforting and refined. The notes of plum, brambly fruit, and leather sing alongside a cassoulet or duck confit. If nearby Bordeaux, where Coutale’s Philippe Bernède sources the grand cru barrels for this bottling, is the polished and urbane one in the family, Cahors is the sneakily sophisticated but humbler country cousin, loaded with personality you’ll enjoy getting to know." -Kermit Lynch
