100% Malbec (aka Auxerrois in local parlance). The fruit for Pur comes from seven different Combel sites totalling 8.5 hectares on the limestone plateau known as the causse. The vines are certified-organic, average 35 years old and are kept to a modest yield. The grapes are hand-harvested and pressed with 10- 20% whole clusters; the juice ferments at cool temperatures with indigenous yeasts in cement tanks with a 10-to-12-day maceration. The wine is aged in cement through the winter and bottled in the spring. Pur Fruit is Combel’s “entry-level” red, made in a fruit-forward, more approachable style than most Cahors adn accounting for about half of the estate’s production.

100% Malbec, this charming Country Wine is lovely with rustic food, braised or grilled and pairs particularly well with anything duck (confit, roasted, rillettes). Revel in the concentrated black fruit and, yet, lower-than-expected alcohol by volume. Fresh and delicious.
