Wine description
Once upon a time there was a terroir…
A land of wines located in France… in the South… between sea and mountains. Here, the winds, the sun and the people have shaped the landscapes since the dawn of time.
In this cherished natural environment, the civilisations that succeeded one another built up a rich cultural heritage. Each in its own way revealed the identity of great wine terroirs.
The HÉRITAGE collection is an invitation to discover our History and our terroirs, to be savoured with each iconic cuvée.
We wish you a pleasant journey in our company.

Tasting note
Héritage La Clape Rouge: A deep colour. The nose reveals the richness of its aromas with blackcurrant jam, cocoa and vanilla. Concentrated and powerful, the palate proves velvety.
Héritage Saint Chinian: The colour is a deep red. The nose offers an intense, refined and complex bouquet of cocoa, bay leaf, tapenade and black pepper notes. The palate is rich and smooth with pure, complex flavours of black fruits and soft spices. A beautiful, long and velvety finish.
Héritage Les Aspres: The colour is an intense garnet with violet hues. This wine opens on a lovely cherry fruitiness with notes of liquorice and subtle oak. On the palate, grey pepper and nutmeg accompany a firm yet supple tannic structure that brings great breadth. A generous and ample palate with a lingering finish.

Your questions about our wines
Each product page provides a food and wine pairing suggestion suited to the cuvée. Our online tasting assistant can also advise you based on your menu.
The ageing potential depends on the cuvée and vintage — it is specified in this wine's technical sheet. In general, our wines for ageing and fine wines can be kept for more than 10 years, or even over 100 years for our fortified sweet wines, whilst our lighter cuvées, intended to be enjoyed young, are best appreciated within 2 to 3 years of purchase.
The alcohol content (% vol.) varies by cuvée and vintage; it is listed in the product’s technical data sheet, below the description.
The majority of our red, white and rosé wines are dry. Our natural sweet wines (Rivesaltes, Maury...) and certain crémants are sweet or semi-dry. The style (dry/sweet) of this cuvée is specified in its description.
The grape varieties, appellation and terroir of origin are indicated in this product’s technical data sheet.
Like almost all wines, our cuvées contain sulphites (naturally present during fermentation, sometimes added in small quantities as a preservative). Details (“no added sulphites”, level, etc.) are specified on this product’s technical data sheet and on the back label.
Many Gérard Bertrand cuvées are vegan certified (100% plant-based fining agents, no products of animal origin). This wine’s vegan status is indicated in its certifications on the product page.
A large proportion of our production is certified Organic Agriculture and/or Biodynamic (Demeter). The certifications applicable to this cuvée are listed on its product page under “Certifications”.
As a general rule: 8-10°C for rosés and light whites, 10-12°C for more complex whites, 16-18°C for reds. The most suitable serving temperature for this cuvée is also indicated on its technical sheet.
This depends on the wine and its age, as specified on the technical data sheet where relevant. As a general rule, our powerful age-worthy wines benefit from being decanted 30 minutes to 1 hour before tasting; lighter wines, whites and rosés can be served directly.
