Wine description
- A tribute to Gérard Bertrand's father, who loved this plot of old Carignan vines, some of which are over 100 years old.
- The name "Forge" comes from the land registry, where all the elements needed for forging are found: wood for the fire and water to cool the metal.
- Full-bodied, the palate reveals powerful, elegant aromas reminiscent of "jammy" red fruit. This is a great wine with excellent ageing potential (20 years).

Vinification and ageing
La Forge was Georges Bertrand's favorite plot, home to century-old vines of Carignan and old Syrah. From his very first harvests, crunching the grapes and walking the rows with his father, Gérard Bertrand had felt the quality of skin and tannins that the age of the vines confers on the grapes that come from them. At his father's side, he learned the quest for excellence through attention to a thousand and one details. "If you want to make a straight furrow, hitch your plough to a star" (Guy de la Rigaudie). This is Gérard Bertrand's quest to continue the work begun by his father. "La Forge is the true alchemy of grape and terroir, and everything I know today. It's unlike any other and reveals Georges Bertrand's personality."
