Co-authors of two great books on wine, Wine & War and Champagne, Don and Petie Kladstrup compare today's Cahors Malbec with that of the past and Argentina's Malbec with that of Cahor in this post Cahors tasting interview.

Petie Kladstrup writes about life in Normandy in her blog Petey Femayle.com. Don Kladstrup is working on a short fiction podcast to be available soon on a network near you.

Sharon Bowman writes about wine at SharonWine.Blogspot.com. She was not previously familiar with Cahors or Malbec, and we were interested in her thoughts on the tasting.

We spoke with her at the recent Malbec de Cahor tasting at Le Taste monde Restaurant in Paris. Just after tasting several Cahors wines, and just before lunch, we asked her for her impressions of the wines and a guess about what would be on the menu for lunch.
