The Gérard Bertrand Hérésie Corbières Rouge 2020 is a red wine from the Languedoc with a strong character, combining history, heritage and Mediterranean flair in an impressive cuvée. Gérard Bertrand began his career in 1975 by taking part in the grape harvest at Château de Villemajou in the Corbières, where he perfected his craft over the years alongside his father, Georges Bertrand. After taking over the family business in 1987, he founded what is now the Gérard Bertrand Group, which now comprises 16 vineyards and 16 châteaux along the French Mediterranean coast and cultivates around 850 hectares of vineyards. This experience and heritage also shape the style of Hérésie, which stands for tradition, depth and authenticity.


The Hérésie Corbières Rouge 2020 is an expressive cuvée made from Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. The grape varieties are vinified separately and traditionally to bring out their respective characters. Some of the hand-harvested grapes are aged in 225-litre Bordeaux barrels, whilst the remainder is matured in stainless steel tanks. Syrah contributes dark fruit and spicy depth, Mourvèdre adds subtle notes of liquorice, whilst Grenache, following a brief cold maceration, brings fruitiness, richness and elegance. With an alcohol content of 14%, the 2020 vintage is powerful, harmonious and well-balanced. It is best enjoyed at a serving temperature of around 18 °C.

Tasting Note

Deep purple-red in the glass. Complex on the nose, with ripe red fruits and subtle spicy notes. Full-bodied and powerful on the palate, with velvety tannins and a well-balanced structure. The finish is long-lasting, harmonious and spicy.

The Gérard Bertrand Hérésie Corbières Rouge 2020 pairs superbly with rack of lamb, roasted game and hearty meat dishes with Mediterranean seasoning. This Corbières red wine also reveals its full depth when paired with mature cheeses or hearty stews. Furthermore, it is ideal for enjoyable evenings when an expressive, full-bodied red wine with the soul of the South of France is called for.
