Returns Simplified.The wine hails from a single-hectare parcel in the ‘Bastys’ area, which is composed of deep granite. The vines are 15 years old. After hand-harvesting, the grapes undergo carbonic maceration without juice for 20 days. The wine then ages for 8 months, with 80% in barrel and 20% in vat.
Growing up in Fleurie, Yann Bertrand vines are farmed organically and located in a single 7.5 hectare block known as Grand Pr. The vineyards are 30-110 years old, planted on extremely fine sandy granite soils, and all winemaking is done using cold carbonic whole cluster fermentations that were developed in the Beaujolais, as well as no added SO2. Yann’s parents had been slowly moving in the direction of organic viticulture since they took over the family domaine in 1992, and in 2013, the entire vineyard was certified organic. Additionally, Yann took on 1.5 hectares to farm on his own using biodynamic principles. Thanks to incredible farming and knack for Gamay, Yann Bertrand has justifiably become one of the most sought-after producers in the region.
