Regain is a 100% Côt (Malbec) from three small parcels on the heights of Duravel, at approximately 170 meters elevation, planted in the late 1970s on siderolithic soils — iron-rich clay over hard limestone bedrock. The 2019 vintage was an excellent growing season in Cahors. The fruit was vinified in tank with a high proportion of whole berries, then aged in barrel inside a natural limestone cave carved into the hillside near Alary. No sulfur was added at any stage, and the wine was bottled unfiltered.
On the palate, the wine is light to medium bodied with ultra-fine tannins and lively acidity. The aromatic profile is precise and focused: dark berry fruit, tomato leaf, white pepper, and a mineral undercurrent from the iron-rich soils. The old-vine Côt gives structure without weight, and the freshness holds the wine together in a way that separates it clearly from heavier Malbec styles.
All Ostal Levant wines are released as Vin de France rather than under the Cahors AOC label. The domaine uses no oenological inputs of any kind — no added sulfites, no fining agents, no commercial yeasts. Vineyard work is done in part with horses.
