M. CHAPOUTIER ROUGE CLAIR & FRAIS 2024 France

GÉRARD BERTRAND LE CHOUCHOU LIGHT RED 2023 France So pale it could almost be sold as a rosé, this is a perfect end-of-summer red from Gérard Bertrand, something to serve straight from the fridge. Made with an unoaked combination of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault from the Languedoc, but sold as more lowly Vin de France, this is juicy, floral and lipsmackingly fresh, with flavours of pomegranate, raspberry and red cherry, subtle tannins, plenty of acidity and a twist of clove spice. Lots of fun. Drinking window: 2024-2026. Score: 91 (timatkin.com, Aug. 15, 2024) Light-bodied & Fruity 42813 (XD) 750 mL $17.95 1 New at Vintages 4 Organic product
