Jean BALDES, a passionate wine-grower and constantly in search of worthwhile innovations, installed the first stainless steel vat for Cahors AOC wines in 1976. He doubled the area of the Triguedina estate and turned in particular towards the production of fine wines. Jean-Luc BALDES is now in charge of the estate and has taken the wines to the top level in Cahors. In 1999, he installed a modern cellar with 600 French oak barrels. As a creative winegrower, Jean-Luc BALDES has developed a wide range of wines.
