Winemaker's note
Gérard Bertrand reveals the history of the great terroirs of the South of France, and especially of the southwest, with the iconic Cahors appellation. The year 1152 was marked by a historic union between France and England. Henry Plantagenet, the future king of England, opened London up to the entire world.
Winegrower's note
The work begins with a selection of the best suited plots to grow this type of wine, in limestone soils and on gravelly terraces. The grapes are harvested mechanically, using a machine fitted with a destemmer that separates the harvested grapes from the stems. The winemaking process is traditional, and the grapes are destalked before the maceration phase, which lasts 10 days. A light pump-over is carried out regularly and the temperature is controlled during this stage. The wine is aged for a year in a concrete tank.
Tasting notes
Dark red in colour with purple-blue hues, this wine features an intense nose with notes of dark berries and violet. Structured with silky tannins, this vintage has a nice roundness and a finish with notes of blackcurrant and liquorice.
Food and Wine Pairing
Serve at 16°C with grilled meat or sauce-based dishes.
We found our new favorite poolside sip! La Grande Bleue Méditerranée, an organic wine made with 5 artfully blended grapes, takes us back to this past summer's adventure in Languedoc, France. The crisp taste is perfect to enjoy on what has been an exceptionally hot summer in both Southern California and Southern France! Thank heavens for La Grande Bleue!!
Our family has a tradition of "Laundry Room wine". It is wine of a high caliber that we hide in the laundry room and only tell a select few about. Those who have a discerning appreciation for tasty wines! Blanc Gris quickly became a "laundry room wine' after my husband and I discovered it on our recent vacation to the Languedoc region of France. I brought it to share with my daughter and sister-in-law who greatly appreciated this addition to our Laundry Room Wine List
I love this sparkling wine! I first tasted it on a Carnival Cruise and I have been in love ever since. I do not drink any other alcoholic beverage. I ordered three bottles and will be ordering three more! Order yours today!!! You will not be disapointed!!
I ordered this at a restaurant last summer and finally ordered a few because I couldn't stop thinking about how much I enjoyed it. It Came packaged beautifully!
The wine was smooth yet complex and very satisfying to keep in the mouth for a few swirls. Delightful to know that Gérard Bertrand’s growing methods are sustainable and mindful of taking care of the land.
I am beyond pleased with the wonderful product and amazing service. Shipping was so fast and packaging was strong and secure. So thankful that they shipped my order via UPS. I love the wine. I can’t find this wine in a small town I live close to. Will definitely buy from this company for sure. Highly recommend!
Thank you
I didn’t get what I ordered, I got a sparkling wine instead and I sent an email explaining that and I haven’t received an answer. I want the wine I ordered please.
I can not find this wine locally, but the nearest Costco carries it around Christmas. I think it is the perfect summer wine. It is light and not very sweet; and the bottle is exquisite. I will order again before the summer is over, I am sure.
