Nice surprise from Cahors. Before, all wines from this appellation had a strong note of an old barrel used to pickle cucumbers (hard to explain otherwise, who felt it once would never forget). Not the most unpleasant smell, but I don't like it in wine. Not in this one. Actually, I would mistake it for Bordeaux in a blind tasting. Significant black currant note, very complex nose and taste. Would buy again.
Enjoyed it with salmon grilled on a cedar plank.
