Clos Siguier La Malice Rosé du Siguier NV
Cahors, Sud-Ouest, FranceUnlike most of Cahors, planted on the flat plains, Clos Siguier is on the highest limestone plateau 500 meter high on the hilltop village of Bagat. Clos Siguier was founded in 1779 and it has been in the Bley family ever since. From youthful malbec vines, this deeply hued rosé is gently pressed with skins and native fermented. Bley allows this wine to do as it pleases; some years it is bone dry, other years it has a swing of residual sugar. This year is the latter, with a bump of strawberry jam coring pink florals, chamomile, baby wipes and some sweet candied orange. There is a swing of balsamic in this natural wine, along with a tightened finish. All in all, disjointed vintage that works less than his other wines.Tasted: 26 April 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $22.00 | 750ml | private wine stores |
