These preparations are dynamized before being applied to the vines, helping to improve the soil's vigor and thus the quality of rosé wines.

The animal: man's partner in revitalizing the terroir

On Gérard Bertrand's land, this practice, with its many virtues and animal intervention, makes perfect sense. Like vitipastoralism, with sheep in winter to maintain the vines' grass cover. In this way, they produce organic matter that nourishes the soil and brings back biodiversity.

However, during the season, the mule or horse works the soil with precision around each vine. The animal acts as man's partner, protecting the old vines and preserving theecosystem. In this way, the root system draws the micronutrients the vines need from deep within the soil. As is the case on the land of Clos du Temple named best rosé wine in the world in 2020, a certified AB and biodynamic organic wine.
