✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Gerard Bertrand, a visionary pioneer of the Languedoc, has dedicated his life to showcasing the diverse terroirs of Southern France. This Syrah-Grenache blend is a vibrant tribute to the Mediterranean lifestyle and the region's ancient winemaking history, which dates back to Roman times. Sourced from sun-drenched vineyards defined by limestone, clay, and schist soils, the grapes are deeply influenced by the surrounding garrigue—the wild Mediterranean scrubland of thyme, rosemary, and lavender. The Syrah provides structure, deep color, and notes of black pepper and dark berries, while the Grenache contributes warmth, roundness, and luscious red fruit flavors. Vinified with careful temperature control and partially aged in French oak, this wine beautifully balances rustic Southern charm with modern elegance.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Vinhuset Gérard Bertrand blev grundlagt i 1992 af den tidligere professionelle rugbyspiller af samme navn. Med udgangspunkt i familiens rødder på Domaine de Villemajou har huset udviklet sig til et globalt pejlemærke for den sydfranske region Languedoc-Roussillon. Hovedsædet ligger på Château l'Hospitalet i kystappellationen La Clape, hvorfra Gérard Bertrand går forrest med biodynamisk vinavl på tværs af hundredvis af hektar førsteklasses vinmarker. Gennem et kompromisløst fokus på biodiversitet, bæredygtighed og terroirets renhed skaber huset en alsidig portefølje af både stille vine, mousserende vine og hedvine. Vingården nyder international anerkendelse for ambitiøse prestigecuvéer som Cigalus, Clos d'Ora og Château l'Hospitalet samt for sine elegante tørre rosévine, udtryksfulde enkeltdruevine og historiske Vins Doux Naturels.
