Gérard Bertrand : Héritage "An 990" Fitou 2022

Languedoc - Fitou - Red Wine -

Gérard Bertrand reveals the history of the great terroirs of the South of France.
990 evokes the time of the feudal lords and the citadel of Fitou which for a long time marked the border between the kingdom of France and that of Aragon.

In this 2022 vintage, Héritage "An 990" Fitou is a beautiful wine made from a blend of Carignan and Grenache produced by Gérard Bertrand, once again demonstrating his remarkable mastery of the work: selection of the best plots, manual harvesting, double sorting in the vineyard and cellar, and barrel aging of a part of the harvest during 12 months.

Here is our tasting of the 2022 vintage.
Color: Deep ruby ​​red with mahogany highlights.
The Nose is powerful, marked by very ripe black fruits (blackberry, black cherry, plum), notes of mocha and roasted wood.
The palate is opulent and very fruity, with velvety tannins. We find these aromas of black fruits. The balance is perfect and offers a beautiful length on the finish.

The 12bouteilles Advice: A top-tier wine from Languedoc, ideally opened 1 hour before serving to allow its aromatic complexity to fully unfold. Serve at 18°C with roasted red meats, poultry in sauce, or aged cheeses. It has an aging potential of at least a decade.
