Gerard Bertrand
A big french red with a subtle nose. A beautiful colour in the glass. There was a very noticeable fruity aroma that was evocative but I could not place the smell which was frustrating, perhaps damp blackberries picked from the Devon hedgerow. It was very easy to relax with this wine although it was big and powerful.
label description:
"Driven by his passion for the Mediterranean lifestyle, Gerard Bertrand reveals all the unique character of the region's finest wine terroirs. The Minervois is one of the most renowned Appellations in the South of France, characterized by hilly landscapes.
Deep red colour. Complex notes and blackberries and cocoa. Elegant, round and full bodied with rich aromas of ripe plums and roasted coffee.
Ideal at 18C with grilled red meats and mature cheeses."
