title: Louis Bernard 2012 Les Carbonnières  (Gigondas)
description: For the vintage, which generally provided rather ripe fruit, this is a bit tight and stiffly tannic. The cherry cobbler aromas and flavors are certainly pleasurable, but finish crisp and firm. Give it a few years in the cellar, and drink 2017–2023.
variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
designation: Les Carbonnières
