Winegrower's note

Tautavel is a village in the Roussillon region, ideally located between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean. Tautavel is steeped in history, recognized as one of the cradles of human civilization. 450,000-year-old Homo erectus tautavelensis remains were first discovered here in 1971, and Tautavel’s archaeological museum is now one of the most popular cultural attractions in Europe. The vines are planted across 20 hectares of pebbly soil, on limestone-rich terraces and south-east facing hillsides. The climate is moderated by the famous Tramontane breeze, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and thoroughly.

Winemaker's note

Selected from the best plots in the Tautavel terroir, the grapes are harvested by hand when they have reached optimum maturity. The grapes are taken exclusively from old Grenache Noir vines, with low yields. No other wines so thoroughly embodies the ineffable spirit of Tautavel. The fruit is vinified in the traditional manner in cement vats and then left for a long maceration process of three weeks, with temperatures maintained below 27°C. Gentle maceration helps to preserve the fruit and its distinctive aromas. The wine is then transferred to oak barrels for 12 months of ageing.

Tasting notes

Beautiful deep garnet red dress. Complex and powerful nose with notes of garrigue, spices and ripe fruit. On the palate, black Grenache, vinified at low temperature and aged in new barrels for twelve months, perfectly expresses the freshness of black fruits. At the end, the spicy, liquorice finish and toasted notes brighten and complexify the wine.

Food and Wine Pairing

Best served at 14-16°C, paired with roasted or grilled red meats, stews, blue cheeses or Camembert.

Customer photo review of La Grande Bleue

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!!

Customer photo review of Gris Blanc rosé wine

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

Customer photo review of Château L'Hospitalet Grand Vin red wine

Intense dark cherry fruit, bright acidity, some tobacco, medium to full-bodied with firm tannins. It is a delicious, round, and pleasing wine.

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 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.
