The Estate Antoine-Marie Arena

What the RVF says in its 2018 Guide: "Antoine-Marie Arena produced his first wines in 2014. Antoine Arena's youngest son has been working and making wine at the family estate for years. He now signs his own cuvées, taking charge of Hauts de Carco in white and Carco in red, and made his entry in the 2017 edition. The reading of the wines and the sensitivity of the new blended wines confirm the talent of this young winemaker. The coherence and depth of his wines are beyond doubt: we award him a well-deserved second star. The wines: they give a lot of emotion, show both precision and accuracy. Hauts de Carco has great purity, a powerful yet firm mouthfeel. Bianco Gentile is a model, with the maturity of this grape variety, without its drawbacks: full-bodied, it is well managed by bitters that reframe it. Bianchi, a blend of vermentino, biancu gentile and muscat, is subtle. It exhales notes of rose and cumin, and delights us with its harmonious mouthfeel, its quality length; for a lemon chicken. Carco, not very extracted and infused, is distinguished by its right substance and finesse. Memoria is chubbier and fuller, but retains the precision of the fruit and the quality of the tannins. Finally, San Giovanni, still very young, offers spicy nuances and a quality substance. It seduces by its dimension"

The Estate Château du Cèdre

"Pascal et Jean-Marc Verhaegue conduisent cette propriété au sommet de Cahors, grâce à une viticulture exigeante et des vinifications précises.

Les 27 hectares (dont 25 de rouges) se répartissent en trois îlots sur deux des meilleurs types de sols de l'appellation, notamment la fameuse troisième terrasse.

L'un est argilo-calcaire et donne des vins tout en finesse, l'autre est un sol de galets mêlés de sables rougeâtres, propice à des vins plus puissants." 4*/5 Bettane+Desseauve 2022

"Depuis plus de quinze ans, les frères Verhaeghe, Pascal à la vinification et Jean-Marc au vignoble, et maintenant Jules, le fils de Pascal, font du Cèdre la référence de l’appellation. Il faut dire qu’ils bénéficient d’un terroir exceptionnel : d’une part, un cône d’éboulis calcaires particulièrement pierreux et constamment en mouvement, le fameux “tran”, qui donne des vins fins et élégants ; d’autre part, un sol de galets sur sables ferrugineux, conférant davantage de puissance aux vins.

Issues de vendanges idéalement mûres et sélectionnées, les cuvées, toujours très colorées, atteignent un rare niveau de qualité et de régularité grâce à des tanins raffinés et des matières veloutées. Les cuvées Extra-Libre déclinent l'ensemble de la gamme en sans soufre."  2*/3 RVF Guide.
