Vigneron Hervé Joyaux Fabre began his career as a Bordeaux merchant but the wines of Argentina began to gain his attention. Falling in love with the category, he purchased his winery in Mendoza and created in Fabre Montmayou in 1992. Gaining much success there it was not until 2015 when Fabre turned his sight back to the birthplace of Malbec, Cahors. Impressed with the diverse terroirs that Cahors had, he gathered a group of investors together and formed Les Vignobles St Didier Parnac. The Château du Perry is part of that group and has holdings on both the clay-limestone hillsides and the alluvial terraces just above the Lot River. The wine is made from 100% Malbec that is aged in large oak barrel for 12 months before transferring to concrete tanks to rest before bottling. The wine is rich and concentrated with flavors of dried plum and red berries. This is a great Malbec for now but has plenty of structure to develop for a few more years.
