✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Crafted by the visionary Gerard Bertrand, a pioneer of the Languedoc-Roussillon wine renaissance, the Reserve Speciale Viognier is a vibrant tribute to the Mediterranean terroir of the Pays d'Oc. Bertrand, a former professional rugby player who inherited his passion for winemaking from his father Georges, has dedicated his life to showcasing the diverse microclimates of Southern France. This 100% Viognier is sourced from select coastal and hillside vineyards where the intense Mediterranean sunshine is balanced by cooling sea breezes, allowing the notoriously finicky Viognier grape to develop its signature aromatic complexity without losing its essential freshness. To preserve its delicate floral and stone-fruit character, the grapes are harvested at the cool of night and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, resulting in a wine that beautifully captures the sun-drenched spirit and wild garrigue of the Midi.
🍾 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.
