Gérard Bertrand Art de Vivre Vin Orange 2023 13% Vol. 0,75l

The Gérard Bertrand Art de Vivre Vin Orange 2023 is a fascinating and expressive orange wine from the South of France that combines modern winemaking craftsmanship with ancient tradition. This special wine pays homage to the cradle of the Mediterranean, its pristine nature, and the art of the civilizations that have lived there for millennia. Its distinctive bottle, made of natural clay, is reminiscent of the first amphorae of antiquity—a symbol of sustainability, culture, and history.

The blend consists of Chardonnay, Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Marsanne, Mauzac, and Muscat — all emblematic grape varieties of the South of France that provide aromatic richness and depth. The wine is made using traditional methods: the white grapes are fermented whole, including the skins and stems, just like in red winemaking. This maceration gives the wine its characteristic orange color with golden highlights, a fine tannin structure, and a complex structure. With an alcohol content of 12% vol. and a distinctive style, the Art de Vivre Vin Orange is a true wine experience that stands out from the crowd.
