Tasting note from from 01.03.2022, Copyright Sebastian Bordthäuser

Clos Troteligotte of Emmanuel Rybinski is a 19 hectare enclosed domain located on the high terroirs of the Cahors appellation. The estate's own vineyards are located in the middle of a forest between the Lot Valley and the Causses, the limestone plateau of Quercy Blanc. Rybinski firmly believes that the quality of the wines is directly rooted in the work done in the vineyards as well as in the quality of the soils. In order to promote the greatest possible balance between vines and soils, Rybinski farms his vineyards according to the principles of biodynamics.

Since 1987, Clos Troteligotte has been practicing a rural agriculture that considers viticulture as part of a healthy circular economy. The experience and observations of the natural interplay of vines, terroir and climate resulted in organic certification in 2014 and biodynamic certification according to Demeter guidelines in 2017. The reds are on the ferruginous clay-limestone terroir of the Cahors plateau, while the whites are grown outside the Clos on external 12 hectares on the Quercy blanc limestone terroirs. The wines of the domaine are marketed under the AOC Cahors as well as Vin de France.

The K-Nom is a cuvée of 85% Malbec and 15% Merlot. The grapes are a selection of small plots with a yield of only 50 hectolitres from a total of 2.5 hectares. After a short maceration period, the must is fermented spontaneously and aged traditionally in large concrete.

Color

Ruby red with violet reflections and black core.

Nose

The 2020 K-Nom from Clos Troteligotte is darkly fruity on the nose, reminiscent of blackberries, mulberries, blueberries and plum jam. Floral notes of hollyhocks and mallow float above the fruity notes, while the heart note is outlined by mild spices and a leaf of light tobacco.

Mouth

The music is clearly played on the palate. Fresh and fruity, it quickly builds up a fast pace on the palate. The dark fruit cascades are fuelled by the lively, animating acidity and the special feel of a wine that is only slightly sulphured. The tannins have that popular chewyness that makes you think you could chew the wine. The perfect sip for after work from Monday to Friday.
