Clos d'Audhuy is Benoit Aymard's organically-farmed family estate in Cahors. 70% Segalin, 30% Malbec Benoit acquired a prized parcel of old Malbec in the midst of which were several rows of Ségalin, an ancient variety of rustic character. His inspiration was to make from this parcel a wine that can be described as a “red rosé” or a “rosé red”, into which he introduced the “queue de pressoir’ – or last pressings – from his regular rosé. Whatever you call it, the wine is simply delicious and silky, shading the primary fruitiness with a vivifying green tone.
