The ever-innovative Emmanuel Rybinski is one of Cahor’s up-and-coming young stars. The 16-hectare vineyard is located atop an iron-rich plateau on the southern border of the Cahors appellation and produces predominantly Malbec, with 10% of the vines dedicated to Merlot.

Since its inception in 1987, respect for the land has been a priority for this family estate and they have passionately committed to sustainable farming practices. In 2014, Clos Troteligotte was certified in organic agriculture and 2015 saw the beginnings of biodynamic viticulture. Passionate and dynamic, they are producing outstanding, stylishly packaged Cahors wines from their unique terroir.

Pronounced with a French K “ka”, their flagship wine K-Or is a play on words for Cahors. 2021 saw the beginnings of a new agroforestry project, with 4,000 trees planted.
