GERARD BERTRAND CUVEE 100 LES ARBOUSIERS 750 ml

Discover the legacy woven into every bottle of Gérard Bertrand Cuvée 100 Les Arbousiers, a red wine born from the storied lands of Fontfroide in the Corbières appellation. This expression traces its roots to the early 20th century, where a dedicated plot first came alive under the care of Paule Bertrand in 1920. Now, over a century later, that same vineyard yields grapes that capture the essence of this rugged terrain, showcasing the Bertrand family's enduring commitment to their craft.

As the second vintage of this special cuvée, it draws primarily from ancient Carignan vines nestled between Cigalus and Villemajou. These time-tempered plants, guardians of the region's signature variety, blend seamlessly with the most venerable Grenache and Syrah parcels across Corbières. Resilient winegrowers have nurtured these old vines through years of Tramontane winds, achieving a harmonious poise that highlights their vitality and restraint. In the very core of Corbières, this wine stands as a singular tribute to a grape variety thriving in its ideal home within Languedoc-Roussillon, France.

Crafted with precision, the harvest unfolds by hand, guided by daily tastings to pinpoint the perfect moment. Carbonic maceration then unlocks a spectrum of aromas, delivering depth and intensity that resonate long after the glass is empty. Earned acclaim of 96 points from James Suckling underscores its stature among discerning palates. Ideal for those who seek the purest voices of Languedoc's premier sites, Gérard Bertrand Cuvée 100 Les Arbousiers invites you to explore a red wine of profound character and regional authenticity in every 750 ml pour.
