The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

When you think of the Malbec grape, Argentina often immediately comes to mind. And more specifically: Mendoza. In this wine region, the blood of the Malbec grape flows like a meandering river through the landscape. Without Malbec, wine production in Mendoza would never have reached its current size. However, the origins of this grape are truly in France—Bordeaux to be precise. Fortunately, this powerhouse is being discovered in more and more regions, including the south of France.

Les Volets Malbec is produced by the Boutinot winery in the beautiful vineyards of the Aude, a department named after the eponymous river that meanders through the idyllic landscape. The department runs roughly from Narbonne, past Carcassonne, and extends almost to Toulouse. It is part of the Languedoc region; many a wine drinker will recognize this. While 40 years ago the quality was still subpar, it has risen dramatically. Just look at this dazzling Les Volets Malbec. A world-class Malbec; a single sip will transport you to a delightful daydream from which you won't want to wake.

Every Malbec lover will find Les Volets Malbec a true feast for the eyes. Despite its affordable price, its quality is undeniably exceptional. Our oenologists are consistently impressed. The aroma is incredibly broad and distinct. Typical Malbec aromas emerge immediately after pouring Les Volets Malbec into your glass. You'll smell blueberries and cherries. Sniff carefully, and you'll discover hints of crème de cassis and violets. The palate is surprisingly robust and firm. You'll taste beautiful tannins combined with chocolate and cranberries. Les Volets Malbec is a full-bodied wine made from the Malbec grape, one we can't get enough of.
