Change Merlot Red wine CAB

Committed to the preservation of biodiversity and vineyard landscapes, Gérard Bertrand invites you to discover the Change range, from vineyards converted to organic farming. Choosing Change is a civic act that supports committed winegrowers. It is also the guaranteed pleasure of intense and fruity wines, with a gourmet and generous palate.

Winemaking & aging

The grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed and vatted in stainless steel vats. The alcoholic fermentation takes place under temperature control to extract as much fruit as possible from the skins. During the maceration phase, pumping over is carried out regularly in order to extract aromas, tannins and color. After the malolactic fermentation, part of the wine is aged in 225-litre Bordeaux barrels for about 8 months, bringing melted tannins, the other part being placed in stainless steel vats to bring aromatic complexity to the blend. After a light fining, the wine is bottled.

Tasting notes

The color is deep red with light purple reflections. On the nose, aromas of blackcurrant, wild strawberry and mushroom stand out. The palate is supple and aromatic, with notes of spices.
