From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

A wine with a story, housed in a unique ceramic bottle that evokes the region's Roman heritage. Gérard Bertrand Art de Vivre Rouge is more than just a wine: it's an expression of the Southern French lifestyle, combining biodiversity, craftsmanship, and history. Crafted according to the principles of biodynamic viticulture, with respect for both people and nature.

The grapes grow in high-altitude vineyards in the Languedoc, where the warm Mediterranean climate is tempered by cool mountain winds. The soils consist of clay and limestone, resulting in a strong structure and deep aromatic development. The vineyards' location contributes to a beautiful freshness in this red blend.

The grapes are vinified separately in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation is followed by careful maceration to extract color, flavor, and structure. A portion of the wine is then aged in oak barrels, adding complexity and a refined spiciness without overpowering the fruit.

Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre combine to create this classic Southern French blend. Syrah provides spice and concentration, Grenache elegance, and Mourvèdre adds structure and depth.

Pair with grilled meats, Provençal dishes, or hard cheeses. Serve at 16 to 18 degrees Celsius for an optimal balance between strength and finesse.
