Winemaking and ageing
The unique blend of 4 red grape varieties (GRENACHE, CINSAULT, SYRAH, MOURVÈDRE) and one white grape variety (VIOGNIER) gives this rosé its distinct character.
A perfect, generous balance with great length, underpinned by a lovely freshness. As the winery is located in the heart of the vineyard, transport time is kept to a minimum. The finest free-run juices are then selected. Cold pressing (5°C) preserves the aromas and freshness and prevents the juice from colouring by locking in the natural pigments (anthocyanins). Prior to low-temperature fermentation, cold settling (débourbage) is carried out for 24 hours at a controlled temperature between 8 and 10°C without the addition of sulphur. Ageing takes place in new French oak barrels (oak from the Tronçais and Jupilles forests) for 6 to 8 months on fine lees with bâtonnage. The wines are blended on a "fruit day", in accordance with the biodynamic astral calendar, which is favourable for tasting
Tasting note
Clos du Temple is a very pale and sparkling rosé. Its nose reveals notes of ripe fruits (apricot, white peach), floral notes of rose and spiced aromas of green pepper. On the palate, the same scents are found, complemented by a delicate finish of blonde tobacco. This wine is capable of ageing for many years.

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.
