TASTING NOTE: A smoking value from Gerard Bertrand (whose portfolio is loaded with impressive wines), the 2015 Languedoc Terroir is mostly Syrah, with 31% Grenache, that was completely destemmed and aged partially in Bordeaux barrels. Its saturated purple color is followed by a ripe, modern-style, creamy Languedoc that offers loads of cassis, licorice and smoked herbs. Drink this Old-World fruit bomb over the coming 2-3 years. Drink Date: 2017-2020. Score - 90 (Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com, April 28, 2017) Price $ 16.95
