The Bertrand family
One group, four values
The practice of biodynamics is a strategic priority for the Gérard Bertrand Group: all the Estates are cultivated according to the principles of biodynamic farming.
Gérard Bertrand's commitment as a winemaker
Excellence
An excellence shared with a quality team, dedicated to this pursuit and to the achievement of high goals.
Producing great wines requires patience, maturity, a great deal of rigour but also the sharing of a common vision with one's team. A good dose of intuition is also needed to reveal the soul of the terroir. Mastering the different stages, from harvest to bottling, through vinification and ageing: not being afraid of the "thousand and one details" that lead to Excellence.
17 estates
in biodynamics, making Gérard Bertrand the world leader in biodynamic viticulture.
4 generations
of winemakers, heirs to a know-how passed down from Paule to Emma and Mathias Bertrand.
+930 hectares
of vineyards in biodynamics, reflecting a commitment to sustainable viticulture.
Innovation
Being a trendsetter
A key watchword for the Gérard Bertrand group, which sets trends through singular, indulgent wines and bottles with refined design. The range encompasses quality wines, organic wines and/or sulphite-free wines, or even wines from biodynamic farming, for all types of consumers, as illustrated by the Autrement, Naturae, Prima Nature ranges. Innovation also comes through bottles with innovative, strikingly beautiful design, such as the Côte des Roses range or Art de Vivre with its ceramic bottles, ideal for decoration.
Being a trendsetter is part of the DNA of the Gérard Bertrand brand, with the aim of offering wines and brands capable of meeting the different expectations of consumers around the world.
"One immerses oneself in the Art de Vivre and the gentle Mediterranean way of life in this magical place that bridges gastronomy, history, the culture of our region and art in all its forms"
Naturalness
A strong commitment to biodiversity
« Preserving the environment sustainably, restoring harmony and balance to ecosystems, valuing the precision of winemaking gestures, extending a hand to future generations — these are the challenges of today and the obligations of tomorrow » Gérard Bertrand likes to remind us.
The group today continues its commitment through a sustainable development policy, taking an important step by carrying out a carbon footprint assessment. This proactive policy responds to the growing expectations of consumers as well as to the global necessity of reducing the harmful consequences of greenhouse gases on the climate. Furthermore, Gérard Bertrand participates, alongside photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand, creator of the Good Planet Foundation, in the agroforestry project "Objectif 10 000 arbres" in Languedoc-Roussillon.
Conviviality
Revealing the Art de Vivre and the heritage of the region also comes through emotion.
The emotion of a glass shared among friends, of communion to the rhythm of music or of discovering local terroir products. Château l'Hospitalet Wine Resort Beach & Spa, the group's headquarters and an exceptional venue, is entirely dedicated to the Mediterranean Art de Vivre: a setting for celebrations, dinners and convivial gatherings for Wine lovers.
A true symbol, the Jazz Festival has welcomed for over 20 years the greatest French and international artists to set alight the starry nights of Hospitalet and contribute to the growth of local culture and tourism.
Jazz is to music what terroir is to wine
Over 5 days of celebration, the estate's courtyard offers a unique and intimate setting for concerts welcoming nearly 1,500 spectators per evening.
Every Friday, throughout the year, Jazz groups take turns performing at dinner concerts pairing food, wine & Jazz. Since its creation, the artists have been selected by Gérard Bertrand in collaboration with Dominique Rieux (Big Band Brass).
In September, the Harvest weekend and the Pruning and Truffle Festival in December are two unmissable events for sharing moments of great conviviality around wine.
Conviviality also means the exceptional experience of a 5-star Wine Resort Hotel, a rotisserie, a beach establishment and a gastronomic restaurant at the heart of a working wine estate... A discovery journey through the wonders of the region.
