2020 Château Les Bertrands Nectar des Bertrands

Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend more

3/21/2023 - Jeff Leve wrote: 89 points

Cigar box, leafy herbs, truffle, crushed rock and red fruits show in the nose and on the earthy, savory, minty, red berry palate. It has been ages since I've seen this wine. It is a solid, well-priced, wine from the Cotes de Blaye. It will be ready-to-go on release. Drink from 2023-2030.

Balanced on the nose, and bright on the palate. One of those enjoyable glasses of wine that doesn’t disappoint

This has softened a bit. Still a very old world profile -- fruits on the more savory side, with some nice wood notes. This went nicely with food. Given the price and age this was exactly what it should have been. Went quite well with pizza, but also nice on its own.

Short note from memory.
Deep dark red with no signs of evolution. Had this wine a couple of times before and was very enjoyable after enough aeration. This time however lots of harsh and not fully integrated tannis with lacking fruit. So three possibilities here: bottle variation, beginning to decline or bad phase right now? Will try again in 2-3 months because i have 12+ bottles of this left...

2018 Château Les Bertrands Cuvée Vieilles Vignes

Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend more

12/31/2020 - Nico P. Likes this wine: NR

13%. Diam1 cork. Limpid medium red. Bright lifted red berry fruit with plummy bottom notes. Fine mouth coating tannins dominates but not overwhelms food friendly tartness. In the mouth red currants and plums. With airing the flavour deepens.

70% merlot 30% cab sauv. Average age of the vines is 35 years. Aged in stainless steel and cement for 15 months. I like structure in my wines, so for me this wine is: drink now while the fruit is still vibrant.

Went well with Cantonese style roast duck.

Sensationeller Wein, extrem
stark in der Nase und im Antritt, hinten raus nicht mehr so fett aber bei jedem neuen Schluck brutal gut. Heidelbeeren, verbrannter Reifen oder heißer Asphalt oder beides zusammen. Noch massive Tanine, der läuft noch mal 10 Jahre.

This Bordeaux is 7 years past it’s window, cost $12 a bottle, and has a community rating of 86 pets. Totally enjoying this tonight with a marinated flank steak and roasted potatoes. This leads me to question how price, rating or window figure into how things turn out.

Gorgeous nose of forrest floor, pencil lead, vanilla and dark berries. If I would have sniffed this wine blind I would guess it is a classified Bordeaux from the 80‘s (like the Montrose 89 I had couple of weeks ago). Unfortunately the palate isn’t that impressive. Initially it is, beautiful fruit and balance. But then on the mid palate it stops rapidly and flows into a harsh and short finish. Overall it is enjoyable no doubt, but a bit disappointing from what it initially promised. Does this wine need some more years in the cellar to melt the tannins? I’ll drink my next bottle in 2 years. Nose 96, Taste 88 weighted 90pt

2/6/2020 - Gerrywell wrote: NR

2016 gilt als großer, bereits viel gehypter Jahrgang in Bordeaux. Die Performance des 2016 Nectar des Bertrands kann das nur voll unterstreichen. Stilistisch liegt er in etwa zwischen 2009 und 2010 und ist etwas stoffiger und dichter als der gut gelungene 2014er. Superbe, reife Frucht, gute Säure und reife, weiche Tannine sorgen für frühes Trinkvergnügen, aber auch gutes Alterungspotential.

Drunk over 4 days. Nicely balanced, fullbodied, dark fruits, just to floppy to give a higher score. very strong at first, but there is not enough stuffing (and acid) to avoid a continous downfall from day 2 to 4. Drink now and the coming 5 years.

Pnp. The wine is ready right from the beginning. Really beatiful nose of black fruits and well intergrated vanilla. On the palate you find these black fruits again, combined with grippy tannins which are not very fine and probably never will. The medium+ body offers drinking fun with a solid but not impressive finish. This wine reached it's drinking window and will be best over the next 5 years.

In der Nase dunkle Frucht, vor allem schwarze Kirsche, rauchige Röstaromen vom gut abgestimmten Holz. Am Gaumen mit ausreichend Säure und opulenter kirschiger Frucht, die bis weit in den recht langen Abgang trägt, etwas erdig, präsentes und adstringierendes Tannin. Boxt wie immer in guten Jahren über seiner Preisklasse, hat mehr Struktur, ist klarer definiert und auch ambitionierter als z.B. der 2009er, der sich hier für einen Vergleich natürlich anbietet. 13.5% Alkohol.

That lovely dusty nose that one gets from an aged bdx. With some nice fruit underneath. Still some tannins here, so maybe these will go longer? But still some bitterness near the finish. This is slightly better than the earlier bottles. I decanted and swirled it in the decanter a bit. I wonder if this is in a dumb phase and will blossom in 5 years or so. I will not find out, as this was my last one!

Again, this is drinking very nicely. Lovely tight nose of leather, cigar box, spices, and subdued traces of candied cherries. Slightly bitter on the finish, but that is the only thing that detracts from a lovely palate of a nicely aged Bordeaux. As I said on my last bottle, this is a good solid wine. It is lacking a bit of fruit, which would elevate this considerably. As it is this is very good

This is perfectly fine, perhaps above average, so a strong 85. For those who like aged wines, this is the equivalent of a new young vibrant wine that will not last -- this is one that lasted, and still has some nice stuffing. It still feels a bit tight, but I am not sure much more will reveal itself. Very pleasant though. I will drink my remaining two in the next two years (assuming I remember to.....)

Edit -- looking at some of the other notes. I do not get the raisin. There are some secondary notes, though admittedly thin.

Best bottle up to now. Thank God, everything is at the right place now. (I still have approximately 30 bottles left.)

Impressive entry, mellow and fruity. Fullbodied. Just a little bit one dimensional and a bit floppy on the end. But for me 95% Merlot in the blend is usually not my cup of tea anyway.
Nevertheless this is a 89-90 score for me. Some guys would probably score it much higher because of its pure charme. Definitely a crowd pleaser.

Best on day two. On its peak soon, but no hurry to drink.

Needs one hour at least to open up. Now back on the track. Stylish BX from the right bank. Medium to full bodied but with a down fall on the mid palate and a rather short finish. Lacks a bit acid. Tannins are a bit drying. Let´s see what this about on the second day.
