Elaboration

Bergerie de l'Hortus is a French red wine made from wines from the AOC Pic Saint Loup vineyards, known for their high quality standards. The wines come from the plots at the base of the slope, with a less marked exposure, with a generally late ripening compared to the Domaine de l'Hortus vineyards. The soils formed on the limestone are shallower. Therefore, the vine is more sensitive to summer drought. The obtained crops are carefully processed in the cellar: relatively short macerations and maturations. The grapes are peeled and crushed. Stable period of 10 to 30 days, depending on the grape variety and the level of maturity. 12-month aging in Grenache and Syrah vats. Mourvèdre is aged in 2 wine barrels.

Taster´s notes

Bergerie de l'Hortus red wine has a deep color with garnet tones. The nose has aromas of ripe fruit with spices and a hint of licorice. The taste gives volume and a beautiful structure, with ripe and velvety tannins. The finish is long and warm. We recommend pairing the wine with white meat. We suggest a serving temperature of 17ºC.

Customer Reviews

The Winery

Marie-Thérèse and Jean Orliac created Domaine de l’Hortus in 1978. Years later, their daughter Marie and two of their sons Francois and Yves joined the winery. Currently, the family runs two vineyards in stunning surroundings. In July, each year, they organize a music festival on their winery, where they aim to merge wine, music, and local products in order to show the great terroir of Saint-Loup.
