Gérard Bertrand An 1886 Cotes du Roussilllon Villages Les Aspres 2020
Côtes du Roussillon Villages, Roussillon, Sud de France, FranceThe AOP Côtes du Roussillon Les Aspres exemplifies what makes the south of France so appealing. Two-thirds of this grenache, mourvèdre, and syrah blend was matured for nine months in barrels, while the remaining was kept in large vats to be blended in the spring. The appeal lies in its rich, soft textures and the generous mid-palate of cherries, licorice, pepper, and oak. I recently opened this and served it without any decanting for sediment or reduction, and the wine showed well instantly. It slips down seamlessly and will pair well with root vegetables, pork, lamb, or beef. Great value too.Tasted: 31 January 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $27.99 | 750ml | BCL exclusive |
