Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors
The #2 Wine of The Year in Wine Enthusiast Magazine!

Carrying the name of one of the estate’s oldest plots of land, farmed biodynamically and harvested by hand, this extraordinary 100% Malbec shows style, elegance and breeding well beyond its modest price. Serge and Martine Costes began by reducing yields to get the most concentration and character from their old vines Malbec vineyards in the Cahors region of France, south of Bordeaux. The wine was aged 12 months in oak barrels, from the stellar 2009 vintage it is #2 on the Wine Enthusiast Magazine Top 100 Wines for 2012. An Editor’s Choice with a 93 point score, they called it “A bold statement of dark Malbec, it’s very rich and very concentrated. The wine has considerable tannins to go with the weight of its fruit. With excellent potential, this wine, made from old-vine grapes, should age for at least seven years.”

Overall underwhelming

By Jockthe Scot

from Mason OH

Verified Buyer

Comments about Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors:

Given the many very good Cahors I have tasted in the past -perhaps my expectations were too high-I found the wine a little metallic and lacking fruit. Still for the price it was just OK.

The "Black WIne" of Cahors

By Mad About Reds

from Stowe, VT

Comments about Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors:

I was very excited to see a Cahors listed by Wine Enthusiast as the 2nd best wine of 2012. I have always loved the deep, concentrated flavor from the region. I just drank my bottle of LaLande Cavagnac yesterday. And boy oh boy, I loved it! Deep and rich, with tannins yet the fruit - blackberry - is able to come through.

      Comments about Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors:

      The Domaine de Cause offers a lot of complexity for the price. Nice spicy fruit cake aromas and notes of plum with puckery tannins round out the mouthfeel. A great value.

      Big and Concentrated Old World Malbec

      By Westchester Wine Guy

      from Wine Express

      Staff Reviewer

      Comments about Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors:

      A very impressive effort all around starting with dark black fruit, spice and a smoky edge on the nose. It's quite dense and weighted on the palate with firm tannins and hints of roasted coffee. It finishes long and dry with a slightly bitter kick at the end… which I love!

      Amazing Malbec!

      By Red Wine Lover

      from Aspen, CO

      Comments about Domaine de Cause 2009 La Lande Cavagnac, Cahors:

      First had this wine when I was visiting Cahors in 2011. It is deep and rich with a hint of dark cherry notes. The Costes family is lovely just like the wine. Bought two bottles - drank one and cellared the other.
