When a winery blends passion with principles, you can taste it. That’s the story of the Gérard Bertrand group, an LCBO Good Partner, and it began three generations ago in the south of France at the hands of Gérard’s grandmother, Paule. Now under Gérard’s direction, the winery is stepping up its world-leading commitment to organic and biodynamic wine-making, with plans to produce 80 percent organic wines by 2025. It's a winemaking approach that's gentle on the earth, built on respect and working in harmony with nature to create an organic environment for their vineyards, while creating a superior, sustainable product.
Exploring the brand’s many varietals is like a journey through the lush Languedoc terroir. Discover Gérard Bertrand Château de Villemajou Grand Vin Rouge, a full-bodied blend that delivers wafts of dark berries, smoke, and violets before revealing its deep structure. Speaking of memorable reds, Gérard Bertrand also excels at Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. On the lighter side, savour the Chardonnay or Gris Blanc Rosé, an elegant Grenache-based pink with accents of red fruit, fresh herbs, and minerals. For a special occasion standout, bring home a bottle of Gérard Bertrand Orange Gold Organic Orange Wine. Bursting with bright, juicy notes of kumquat, donut peach, Valencia orange, and Granny Smith apple, it’s like sunshine in a glass.
