Corbieres Boutenac La Forge - Gerard Bertrand 2019

94 Points, Wine Advocate: "Hundred-year-old Carignan vines form the base of this cuvée, one of Gerard Bertrand's flagships. The rest of the 2015 Corbieres Boutenac la Forge is Syrah; both are aged a year in barriques. Pencil shavings and crushed stone aromas set the stage for this garrigue-inflected blend, which folds in notes of green peppercorns, red berries and cherries, and hints of rosemary. It's full-bodied but already approachable, with silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. Drink Date: 2018 - 2025." (May 2018)
