Rosés

Gérard Bertrand Orange Gold Organic White 2020, France: Gérard Bertrand Orange Gold 2020 is a rich and fragrant blend of organically grown Chardonnay, White Grenache, Viognier, Marsanne, Mauzac, Muscat and is deep gold in the glass. So many aromas and flavours on this wine. We start with white and yellow florals on the nose, ripe peach, fresh apple and fragrant orange zest to wake up the senses, finishing long and zesty on a mineral note. There are light tannins on this wine. Orange Gold is made using an ancient winemaking technique whereby grapes are whole bunch vinified and fermented. Maceration is with stems and skins and gives this wine an iridescent orange-gold colour. Orange Gold Organic White food pairings: bouillabaisse, pan-fried scallops in ginger and mandarin, duck a l'orange.
