We carry one wine from Bergerac; the best one - La Gloire de Mon Père, a punchy, delicious Malbec\/Cabernet Sauvignon\/Merlot blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe poster boy for organic and biodynamic winemaking in this part of the world, Luc de Conti of Château Tour des Gendres has been producing wines of outstanding quality in a corner of France well known for its gastronomy but in the shade of Bordeaux when it comes to wine. With La Gloire de Mon Père you have a full bodied, Bordeaux-esque blend as good as wines three times the price from a few miles east of Ribagnac. Stylistically, with a good splash of Malbec the wines sometimes feel like a mix between the Sud-Ouest and Bordeaux styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCRITIC REVIEWS ('19)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a powerful wine, rich in tannins as well as blackberry fruits. With a good proportion of Malbec in the blend, the wine is dark in color and in tannin intensity. It needs plenty of aging and should not be drunk before 2024.
