Gerard Bertrand is passionate about the Mediterranean Art de Vivre and is a specialist producer of premium wines from the south of France. In his ReserveSpeciale range he reveals the elegant, generous array of fruity flavours produced by the very best terroirs in the region. The exceptional terroirs of the Languedoc enjoy optimum sunshine and low rainfall, bringing out all the complexity of the region’s emblematic grape varieties and thus producing top-quality wines. Wine maker notes After the “green harvesting” in June, the grapes are picked in late September when perfectly ripe. The average yield is 25 hectolitre per hectare. The grapes are de-stemmed before being placed in vats for maceration that lasts 10 to 15 days. Pumping-over operations extract the best out of the skins prior to pressing. The wine is partially matured in 225-litre barrels before being bottled.
Producer From the discovery of the Tautavel man to the Roman hegemony in Narbonne, via the Visigoth occupation and the Cathar heresy, Languedoc-Roussillon’s past is steeped in rich history. At the beginning of the 20th Century, a phylloxera epidemic, coupled with overproduction and widespread fraud, wrought havoc for winegrowers, who subsequently decided to revolt. Since the 1950s the wines of the Languedoc have become increasingly refined, and the best estates now produce wines of truly exceptional quality. Gerard Bertrand is determined to drive this progress even further, through continued innovation and by creating internationally-renowned appellations and wines.
