Château St. Didier-Parnac

France

Château St Didier-Parnac is located in the Lot Valley in Cahors - the heart of southwest France.

Its roots date back to 1755. During the Barbarian invasions the vineyards of Cahors were left in ruins. Saint Didier - the Count of Cahors - left the court to revive the region of Quercy. The appellation expanded as new vineyard sites were planted and the wines established a prestigious reputation. Saint Didier became the ambassador of what was referred to as the “black wine of Cahors” given the deep color it obtains from the Malbec - the predominant variety of the area.

The vineyards of Chateau St. Didier-Parnac surround the castle of the same name in the town of Parnac. For more than 250 years, this historical estate has developed its expertise, assuring tradition, authenticity and quality for a range of Cahors wines.
