Debeur - Guide gourmand des Québécois - February 2016:
"The French wine merchant company Barton & Guestier produces in the south of France, in Pays d'Oc in particular, sharing its know how and solid experience acquired in the Bordeaux region.
We have tasted there a wine with black fruit aromas, blackberries, blackcurrant combined with cedar, delicate vanilla and green pepper notes. Complex, rich, fruity with a long aftertaste, this wine offers a good structure with present but velvety tannins and a long spicy finish. Perfect pairing with a nice piece of beef and mushrooms, roasted lamb or kidneys of beef. Excellent value" (Thierry Debeur)
"L'entreprise bordelaise Barton & Guestier produit dans cette région du sud de la France, en pays d'Oc plus précisément, faisant bénéficier cette appellation de leur savoir-faire girondin (région de Bordeaux). Nous avons goûté ici un vin aux parfums de fruit noir, de mûre sauvage et de cassis avec une note de cèdre, de vanille légère et de poivron vert. Capiteux, ample, long et fruité en bouche il possède des tanins fins et serrés avec une finale délicatement épicée. Le servir en carafe en même temps qu'une côte de bœuf aux cèpes, un filet d'agneau rôti ou des rognons de bœuf aux champignons. Bon rapport qualité prix. (Thierry Debeur)"

SELECTED in Toutsurlevin.ca: Un chouette petit vin de bistro que ce côte-du-Rhône. C'est fruité, un peu épicé et les discrets tanins sont vraiment souples en bouche. On y retrouve des arômes de fruits rouges, des notes plutôt poivrées, un soupçon de réglisse peut-être et on devine la garrigue non loin des vignes.
www.chacunsonvin.com - Canada - Marc Chapleau
"A prix modeste (13,95$can) un très honnête assemblage syrah-grenache, corsé, généreux et fruité, à servir légèrement rafraîchi pour qu'il paraisse encore plus à son avantage." (millésime 2014).
"Great value wine (selling price only 13,95 $ can), a full, rich and fruity blend of Syrah and Grenache. At its best served a little bit chilled"
www.vinquebec.com - Marc André Gagnon
Beaux nez de confiture de fruits rouges et une petite note de tabac. Invitant. Bouche d'abord fruitée, puis épicée. Sec, tanins très fins. Belle finale assez élégante. (millésime 2014)

"This is a silky, ready to-drink red. Cherry and plum fruit mingle easily with earth, leather and mocha, finishing on a softly dusty note. Drink now-2023"

"On Wednesday July 27, 2016 FOX news network (national news network) came by City Tavern to film a cooking segment with Chef Staib during the DNC while in Philadelphia. Chef showcased a demo for Escalope of Veal, and featured B&G wines exclusively during the segment which was aired live during their morning news. Nothing better than to pair one of Thomas Jefferson's favorite recipes with his favorite wines." Here is the link

MADHUNGRY - "Rosé Wine Season Begins" published by Lucinda Scala Quinn
CONNECTICUT COTTAGES & GARDENS - "In the Pink"
Barton & Guestier Côtes de Provence Passeport 2015 ($15) This is an astonishingly good wine for the price, a blend of grenache (50 percent), cinsault (30 percent), andsyrah (20 percent). This double-gold-medal-winning rosé is an elegant pale salmon in the glass, boasts ripe berry fruit and white flowers in the nose, and finishes with a bit of red current and lemon zest on the palate. The fruit-acid balance is near-perfect, with a silky mouthfeel and a fresh finish. It is a lovely wine, and I would pair it with simply grilled fish as well as heartier summer fare; it could handle either with aplomb. The vintner, Barton & Guestier, is the oldest négociant inBordeaux, and was the first wine shipper to introduce French wines to American shores (with some assistance from our beloved third President (and noted oenophile), Thomas Jefferson.
Barton & Guestier La Villa Barton Côtes de Provence 2015 ($20) Another winner from B&G, this wine is a bit more refined than the Passeport, boasting notable mineral elements enhancing the fruit, floral, and citrus notes in both the nose and on the palate. White peach emerges mid-palate, creating a wonderfully layered tasting experience. The mouthfeel is lightly silky, and the finish can best be described as juicy, with plenty of freshness and a pleasing acidity. I'd serve this wine with all manner of Mediterranean food, but it paired beautifully with a leek and goat cheese tart and segued gracefully into a course of fish soup. Formidable!
