In a few words ...
Its color is a dense garnet. The Cigalus grand vin has an intense nose revealing a complex bouquet of jammy black fruits, spices, licorice, humus and truffles. A clean, fat, unctuous attack on the palate, coupled with present, melted, coated tannins. Official wine of the 2018 Nobel Ceremony banquet! The atypical aspect of this wine is the presence of 7 grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Granche, Caladoc and Carignan.
Tasting notes
Appearance
Intense ruby color with a mahogany tint.
Aroma
The bouquet screams concentrated, very ripe black fruits, toasty spices and toasty oak.
Wine Fruity | Spicy | Vegatable
Taste
The palate is lush and opulent with velvety tannins. Aromas of black fruits - blackberries, black cherries and plums - reappear with a complex empyreumatic framework leading to mint. The finish is long and perfectly balanced.
Wine Fruité | Gras | Tannique | Tendre

A well-balanced, full-bodied southern wine with a very broad palette of flavors and notes. This is a very, very good wine! I recommend

Excellent wine, round and long on the palate, I like it. I won't give it 5* because it's very alcoholic, so drink in moderation ;-)

Gérard Bertrand delivers on its promise of quality with this Cigalus. A fruity, spicy red with a fresh mouthfeel.

A complex wine, as they say. Beautiful structure, long on the palate, I love this type of wine, which is not sufficiently recognized.

Unbeatable value for money at 30% off.
The long white has a long, balanced, mineral mouthfeel, with lovely yellow fruit notes and a light acidity. Excellent with lean fish.

Well-ripened black fruit, subtle oak, generous (and almost heavy) like a southern wine, still a little young, it should improve with time.
