Wines and spirits Caussade

The signature of this wine, dominated by the Cabernet Franc grape variety, is its well marked tannins and notes of red fruit, animal and pepper. But the wines of the Coteaux du Quercy are also available in rosés, pleasantly fruity and in pleasant and balanced red wines. Their quality has been rewarded by obtaining the Appellation d'Origine Vin Délimité de Qualité Supérieure coteaux du Quercy which is now controlled and defended by a syndicate.

Below the perched village of Puylaroque, the small road that leads to the Ariès estate narrows at a glance. After a final crossroads, two winegrowing areas face each other. On the left, we are in Tarn-et-Garonne in the commune of Puylaroque, on the right in the Lot in the commune of Belfort-de-Quercy, but everywhere in the territory of the coteaux-du-quercy appellation. We turn left, and knock on the cellar. The domain offers a narrow range of red and rosé wines, delicious wines made with sustainable agriculture, as harsh and cheerful as the country.

Once you cross the threshold, you are first of all impressed by the volume of the place, dedicated to the god Bacchus. 250 m² of sales area in a cosy and friendly atmosphere. The lighting has been specially created for the place. Themed evenings are organized upon reservation for an introduction to oenology and a tasting accompanied by appetizers in harmony with the wines and spirits. All the wines are French, with a very nice selection of wines from the South-West. There is also a roasting area and a fine assortment of delicatessen products.
