The Divin Croisille from Château les Croisilles is a Malbec matured in 500L barrels and barriques, which comes from the three best plots of the winery, whose vines are on average 40 years old. The yield is very low at 25 hl/ha, but the concentration is very high, and the tannin quality is simply fantastic. This great wine, which we have known since the 2007 vintage, was ennobled by Decanter magazine. The 2011 Divin Croisille won the Cahors test, in which 100 wines were entered. This means that it deserves the name Divin (=divine), after all, it stands above the others.
