This is a surprisingly good bottle of wine. I purchased it at the Union Square Wine Shop. — 3 years ago

Subtle notes of sandalwood, nail polish, ripe red/dark cherries and call me crazy, but roasted granolas with raisins. Regal nose and seductive. Reminded me of George Noellat and Felettig. Ripe and relatively high heat on palate indicated a ripe year hence 2015. Long finish! — 6 years ago

I’ll be honest: I enjoyed this slightly less than the Domaine Coquard, above. But I don’t know if that’s a product of it being ‘18, or if it being Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet. It’s still a marvelously well-constructed wine, it’s just tart and tight. For better or worse, my favorite burgundy flavors are the secondary ones — the leather and game you get in older wines. — 3 years ago
Seemingly less oak helps make this approachable now, though did open open nicely with a decent over 90min — 4 years ago
Beautifully dense Pinot noir from Fixin. Need to buy more of this and hold onto it for a bit. — 5 years ago
Fairly closed aroma. Very rounded, dark oak and stewed fruit. A winter Vosne-Romanée in a side by side comparison to the Berthaut-Gerbet 2015 village. — 6 years ago
Very nice! Good berries up front and not just sweet strawberries; dark berries too. Good depth with a little earth/dairy on the finish. Went great with cheese and dry fruit platter! — 3 years ago
I've said this time and again - I love Amelie's wines, but I guess it's time to stop... since Nicolas has now joined the estate. What a dream team! Amelie's Rousseau-like touch on the wines, with Nicolas' DRC-emboldened viticulture skills. I love Berthaut-Gerbet!
The 2015 Clos Vougeat is the first vintage of this wine. Got this straight from the domaine and was planning to keep it around a little longer, but I got tempted. Plus I wanted to share my love for Berthaut-Gerbet with a good friend.
Sure it's practically murder, but gawd, it's so pleasurable. The bouquet was filled with red and dark berries, rose and sweet spice. Palate's so rich, yet energetic. Oak, seamless. Texture, supple. Finish, endless with an underlying minerality. The wine was just vibrating with energy. A fine and pure example of CV. So glad this showed so well, given how lots of 15' red Burgs have just shut right down. — 5 years ago

Absolutely brilliant wine. Concentrated and rich, but not overripe. Very impressive. Punches way above its level. — a year ago
