Louis Bernard Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge 2009
Côtes du Rhône Villages, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceThe Bernard 'Villages' is always a bit warmer and glossier that the simple Côtes du Rhone but in this case it's a big jump up in weight and power for very little in price. Spicy blackberry fruit dominates with bits of liquorice and some classic garrigue or dried herbs in the finish. It is warm but with impressive concentration of fruit. Good value. Should be on every wine list in the city.Tasted: 16 November 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $16.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
