Gerard Bertrand Cahors Malbec 2020
From the storied terroirs of Cahors in Southwest France, Gérard Bertrand's 2020 Malbec pays tribute to a region steeped in winemaking heritage and cultural depth. Crafted as part of the HERITAGE collection, this vintage expresses the wild beauty of a land nestled between sea and mountain, where vines thrive under the caress of southern winds and Mediterranean sun. Drawing from centuries of tradition, this Malbec reflects the strength and identity of Cahors, a region once made famous through its historic ties with England.
The wine presents a dark, almost inky color touched with deep purple hues. Its nose opens with a powerful bouquet of ripe black fruits and violet, leading into a well-structured palate balanced by silky tannins. The mouthfeel is smooth and rounded, offering flavors of blackcurrant and licorice that linger elegantly on the finish. Made exclusively from Malbec grapes, this vintage captures both the boldness and finesse that define the appellation.
Gérard Bertrand Cahors Malbec 2020 is best served slightly chilled at 13°C, pairing beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and sauced dishes. Whether enjoyed now or after a few years of aging, it promises a full-bodied yet graceful experience that honors the soul of Southwest France in every sip.
