Gérard Bertrand - Orange Gold - Vin Orange
Gerard Bertrand is a renowned winemaker from the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. His Orange Gold wine is a unique blend of Muscat and Viognier grapes, grown in the sun-drenched vineyards of the Mediterranean coast. The history of Gerard Bertrand dates back to the 1970s when his father, Georges Bertrand, purchased the Château de Villemajou estate in the Corbières region. Gerard Bertrand took over the estate in 1992 and has since expanded his wine empire to include over 15 estates across the Languedoc-Roussillon region.
The Orange Gold wine is produced using a combination of traditional and modern winemaking techniques. The Muscat grapes are harvested at night to preserve their delicate aromas and flavors, while the Viognier grapes are picked during the day to ensure optimal ripeness. The grapes are then fermented separately in stainless steel tanks before being blended together to create the final wine.
The Orange Gold wine has a bright golden color and a complex aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, and honey. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied with flavors of apricot, peach, and orange blossom. The wine has a long, lingering finish with a hint of sweetness.
Gerard Bertrand is known for his commitment to sustainable winemaking practices. He has implemented a number of initiatives across his estates, including organic and biodynamic farming, water conservation, and renewable energy. The Orange Gold wine is certified organic and is made using only natural yeasts.
In addition to the Orange Gold wine, Gerard Bertrand produces a wide range of other wines, including reds, whites, and rosés. His wines are known for their exceptional quality and value, and are enjoyed by wine lovers around the world.
