Malbec, known as Côt in the Loire, takes on a fresher, more lifted character in Touraine, and Vignobles Dinocheau leans into that vibrancy. This 2021 bottling is all about purity—organically farmed, minimally handled, and made to highlight the grape’s lively, fruit-driven side rather than its heavier Cahors or Argentine counterpart.

Blackberry, plum, and tart black cherry take center stage, with a touch of violet, cracked pepper, and wet stone adding complexity. The tannins are fine and lightly structured, while bright acidity keeps it refreshing. A great option for anything grilled, roast duck, or even a simple charcuterie spread. Chill it slightly, pour generously, and enjoy a Loire Valley take on Malbec that’s all about elegance over power.

Loire Valley Wines

The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
