    Here is a ripe wine from a fine vintage in Cahors. With touches of spice as well as rich black-currant fruits, the wine is all about its fruitiness and acidity—ably assisted by tannins. The aftertaste just keeps the fruit coming.

    In Cahors Tradition means a wine that doesn't go into barrels for aging. That keeps the fruit vibrant and crisp, as it is here. The wine is ripe, full in the mouth with fruit tannins and black-currant acidity. It is a year away from maturity, so drink from 2017.

    Like most Tradition wines in Cahors, this fruity and perfumed wine has been aged in stainless steel to keep the fruitiness. Blackberry flavors are cut with acidity and a tight tannic character. It needs to age another few months, so drink from late 2016.

    This dense and dark wine offers spice and toast flavors. It has a big, generous feel, leaving room both for the dry, still-young tannins and for aromatic blackberry fruits. It does need to age, so drink from 2017.

    The wine is driven by its full and rich red fruits. The tannins are smooth, given a polish by the wood aging. It's structured, firm and ready to drink, with a solid future until 2020.

    The entry level wine from Eugénie, this is a smooth, ripe wine, juicy and structured enough to give weight to the texture. The black currant fruits are already blossoming through the tannins. The wine should be ready to drink in 2014.

    This is the entry-level wine from Château Eugénie, and it is delicious. The Malbec is softened with some Merlot, rounding out the wine. It does still preserve the solid structure of Cahors with its dense black fruits and firm tannins.

    A structured and firmly tannic wine, with sufficient juicy blackberry fruit to make it already approachable.
