La Forge: In honor to his father and family traditions, Gérard Bertrand presents this exceptional wine made from old Carignan vines, some over 100 years old.This cuvée, AOP Corbières Boutenac, has a dark color and explosive aromas of finely toasted ripe fruit.

L'Hospitalitas: At the summit of Château l'Hospitalet, this parcel benefits from an exceptional microclimate, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and progressively.
Part of the Syrah is vatted in whole bunches, while the other part, as well as the Mourvèdre, are destemmed before being vinified in traditional maceration.Aged in new barrels for around 12 months, this wine has a suave attack, with smooth tannins and a long finish.A wine with great ageing potential.
