French? Check. Malbec? Check. Organic? Check.

Puro Malbec checks all the boxes! Puro comes from 40+ vines grown atop steep, rocky limestone hilltops covered in clay and gravel. Tradition and respect for nature run deep at Château de Gaudou, which was established in 1733 and to this day is run by the same lineage of winemakers, the Durou family, in the Cahors appellation of the southwest of France. The Durou family name is recorded in Cahors parish registries going back to the 16th century! Today, Château de Gaudou is led by Fabrice Durou and family. 

No chemicals are used in the vineyards, all grapes are hand-harvested, and fermentation occurs with native yeasts within stainless steel tanks and cement vats. Puro is bottled unfined, slightly filtered, and a drop of SO2 is added for stability. 

Puro Malbec pours a dark purple, with aromas of blueberries and slight pine resin and spiced plums. The finish is dry, but not overly so, with pleasant and juicy acidity. Puro is easy to drink, and easy to love. We love Puro paired with grilled steak and veggies, or compliment it with Chabichou on a cracker drizzled with Mike’s Hot Honey!

Puro Rosé is an *extremely limited* rosé of the season. We love its savory notes and smooth finish. The finish is like silk and aromas of thyme and strawberries explode from the glass. Try Puro Rosé with fried fish and chips. Something salty with this pink gem is so delightful!
