Bergerie de la Bastide Rouge 13%vol 2023

Bergerie de la Bastide is the everyday red from a Languedoc estate, made for drinking young rather than cellaring. Typically a southern blend picked for freshness and soft tannin. Two thousand and twenty-three at thirteen percent. Ripe red cherry, plum, a little sweet spice and a smooth, easy finish. Serve at 15-16C with pasta, grilled meats, pizza or a mild cheese. Unpretentious Languedoc red at a proper Tuesday-night price. Worth keeping in.
