Renaissance of the vine
Spring heralds renewal in the vineyards. The vegetative phase begins, the first tears of vines flow and bud break marks the first moments of a new vintage. It is also the time of year when our winegrowers are on the lookout in the vineyards.
In biodynamics, observation, analysis and decision-making are essential for the life of a vineyard. Protecting the living After a winter covered in grass, our soils receive their first care, guided by biodynamics where 300 people work daily to reveal the Great Wines of the region. Committed to preserving the environment, the Gérard Bertrand vineyards receive special care, between plowing and treatments based on herbal teas.
Over the years , the soil, this place that shelters the most living species on earth, will gain in fertility. There are approximately 47,000 links between microorganisms and bacteria in biodynamic soils. The biodynamic preparations used will increase the microbial life of the humus and boost the natural defenses of our vines. Biodynamics for great wines.
From these preserved terroirs are born great wines that respect the specifications of biodynamics ( Demeter certification) Resulting from fermentation without the aid of chemical yeasts and vinified with doses of sulfites much lower than in organic, they testify to a vineyard in excellent health. A preserved environment and magnified wines demonstrate the relevance of the approach.
