Gérard Bertrand
Corbières Grenache Blend
Tastes young/green. Berry and a bit of tannin. Would be sweet, if not for acid. Probably fine with grilled meats, but a little thin and uninteresting alone.

Ruby in color with a light intensity and a red rim.
On the nose, vanilla, licorice, blackberries, earth, blueberries, cherries, red currants and peppercorn.
Medium bodied.
Dry on the palate with cherries, currants, forest floor, strawberries, peppercorn and plums.
Medium finish with soft tannins and black pepper.
Ok wine, but too earthy for my taste.
