Join us for a rare and exciting opportunity to dive deep into the wines of Cahors with Lin Liu MW, the first Chinese woman to earn the prestigious Master of Wine title. Lin brings not only global perspective but also deep local insight—as the resident expert at Château de Chambert, one of Cahors’ most acclaimed biodynamic estates.


In this masterclass, we’ll explore the fascinating story of Malbec, once known as the “Black Wine” of Cahors and favored by kings and popes before Bordeaux closed off its access to the Atlantic. We’ll trace its revival, from historic obscurity to global fame thanks to Mendoza—and the passionate winemakers reclaiming Cahors’ place on the world stage.


You’ll taste three expressions from Chambert alongside benchmark Cahors wines to explore the region’s diversity, power, and sense of place.


This is a seated, guided tasting designed for both wine lovers and professionals who want to deepen their understanding of one of France’s most storied (and still underrated) wine regions.
