Château les Croisille

Cahors

Château les Croisille farms in the Cahors appellation along the Lot River, producing a diverse range that goes well beyond the typical Malbec-focused Cahors program to include Chardonnay, Loin de l'Oeil, and the unusual Calcaire cuvée, reflecting the estate's ambition to showcase the full potential of their particular corner of Southwest France. The CotCoriCot is an entry-level Côt (Malbec) of genuine freshness and drinkability, while La Pierre represents the more structured, terroir-specific expression of the estate's limestone (calcaire) and clay soils. The Calcaire itself is a natural reference to the geology underlying the appellation—the chalky limestone that defines the best Cahors sites and gives the wines their characteristic mineral backbone alongside the variety's signature dark fruit. The Loin de l'Oeil is an indigenous Southwest variety rarely seen outside the region, producing a crisp, aromatic white of genuine curiosity value. Chardonnay adds a familiar varietal option for buyers building comprehensive programs.
