The palate is lively and juicy, showcasing bright elderberry and mulberry flavors, balanced by smooth tannins and a subtle touch of white pepper on the finish.

About the Winery

Crocus

Crocus is a distinguished winery located in the Cahors appellation of southwest France, a region renowned as the historic home of Malbec. The estate is a collaboration between two visionaries: Paul Hobbs, the celebrated American winemaker known for his work in Napa Valley and Argentina, and Bertrand Gabriel Vigouroux, a fourth-generation French vigneron whose family has been producing wine in Cahors since the 1880s. Their partnership, founded in 2011, was born from a shared ambition to showcase the true potential of Malbec in its original French terroir.
