Gérard Bertrand Château L'Hospitalet La Reserve La Clape 2010

La Clape, Coteaux du Languedoc, Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceAnother success from the producer. We love the savoury, garrigue, smoked pepper nose flecked with blackberry, black plum, liquorice and floral, meaty, tapenade notes. Ripe and supple with a juicy palate of meaty, smoky red pepper, resin and mesquite flavours with plum, black cherry, tobacco and saddle leather notes. Very southern Rhone-like but fresh and balanced for near term consumption. Fine value here.Tasted: 29 April 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
