The “Gris Blanc” Rosé is produced by one of the most esteemed vignerons in France. Gérard Bertrand, after closing his rugby career, decided to return to his homeland to manage the family estate in Corbières. After several years of apprenticeship, towards the end of the 1980s, he took the reins of the estate with the intent of creating great wines. The Grenache vineyards are mainly found in the Tautavel region, in the area between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea, characterized by a very sunny, dry, and breezy climate. The harvest is carried out manually, and the best bunches are gently pressed in protection from oxygen to avoid oxidation and preserve the fragrance of the varietal aromatic profile. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures of 15-18 °C. Before bottling, the wine is aged on fine lees in steel tanks for a few weeks.

On the palate is smooth and fragrant, clear and savory, with a finish of remarkable freshness.
