Château de Hauterive produces Malbec-based wines from Cahors, the South West France region where this dark, structured grape reaches its fullest expression. The winery's core offering, a pure Malbec Cahors, anchors a portfolio that includes Chemin de Compostelle, a Malbec-Merlot blend, and Cuvée Prestige, another Malbec selection. Cahors Malbec carries weight and tannin density—the region's signature profile—with the potential for aging complexity. Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator have rated the winery's releases, reflecting their standing among critics who assess the South West's traditional expressions.
