Who is Gérard Bertrand?

The pursuit of excellence with respect for biodiversity and the principles of biodynamics

The birth of a passion for wine and biodynamics

It was in 1975, in the vineyards of Château de Villemajou, in the heart of the Corbières, that Gérard Bertrand had his first harvest and discovered his passion for wine.

He would perfect his craft over twelve years alongside his father Georges Bertrand.

We are now in the fourth generation of winegrowers, from Paule to Georges, then Gérard Bertrand, and finally Emma & Mathias.

Deeply committed to the values of performance and excellence learned on the rugby field, Gérard Bertrand continues his quest: to reveal the finest terroirs of his region and promote them throughout the world.

It is in this spirit that he took over the family torch at Domaine de Villemajou following the accidental death of his father in 1987. Five years later, he founded the Gérard Bertrand wine company to develop a range of wines from the South of France.

In the following years he acquired Domaine de Cigalus and Château Laville Bertrou.
