Wine from Cahors
Filter
The region of Cahors is a 500-kilometer pathway that leads through Quercy creating alluvial soils and fertile valleys thanks to the broken limestone hills in the region. Described as the Sud-Quercy, or Southwest. There are actually ten wine regions that stretch from the Spanish border to central France from the Pyrenees, to the Mediterranean, and the Atlantic. The region consists of 45 villages and 4250 acres and is a compact area that is 40 kilometers wide and 60 kilometers long. The majority of the vineyards, 70% of them to be exact, are located on a narrow strip of land on each side of the Lot River between Cahors and Puy L'Eveque. The wines in this area are very fruity, full-bodied, bold, and powerful. The rest of the vineyards are on the limestone causse plateau above Cahors, tend to less robust, but have the same distinctive finesse and elegance. Most of the hillsides are limestone soils. Because of the combination of soils, which are very conducive to grape growing, and the climate, which is mild with lots of sunshine, vineyards in Cahors produce wines with all of the characteristics of a great vineyard. The region produces inexpensive table wine to some of the most award winning reds and whites in the world.

2021 Rossj-Bass displays the main features of the vintage well, with intense fruit concentration and floral notes. The nose shows ripe citrus notes of lemon peel and orange evolving into tropical fruits. The richness of the nose and the same notes are reflected on the palate, where remarkable acidity balances the fruit concentration. The wine is rich, full-bodied and creamy, with a long finish.
Review:
The 2021 Gaja Rossj-Bass starts off with very, crisp, green fruit and much more Sauvignon Blanc dominant aromas of grassy, bright, fragrant green apple and green pepper - all very bright and cheerful. Then Chardonnay seems to take over in the medium-full bodied and pleasing creamy texture of the wine. This is balanced again by the tangy, juicy acidity of Sauvignon. This is very elegant blend of Sauvignon Blanc aromas and zestiness and the textural comfort of Chardonnay. The name Rossj is a nickname of Angelo Gaja’s second daughter, Rossanna.

Long Shadows Pirouette Meritage is made from Cabernet Sauvignon.
Pirouette is a classic Bordeaux blend – the 2021 is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec. Philippe Melka, named one of the top nine winemakers in the world by Robert Parker, drew on small lots from Washington State's finest vineyards to craft this red blend. Hand-harvested Cabernet was fermented in 400L French oak barrels, gently rolled throughout fermentation to integrate the oak with refined dark fruit and give the wine its silky mouthfeel; the balance fermented in stainless steel, with select lots given longer skin contact for color and mid-palate. The finished wine aged 22 months in French oak (80% new) before bottling unfiltered and unfined.
Review:
"The 2021 Pirouette is Philippe Melka's take on Washington State Bordeaux varieties, and it's based on 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, and 2% Malbec. Ripe black and blue fruits, leafy herbs, violets, tobacco, and a kiss of some chocolaty oak all emerge from this beauty, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a broad, layered mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and a stunning finish. It certainly makes the most of the vintage and it's up with the crème de la crème of this vintage."
