Yann Bertrand Description
Yann grewq up in Fleurie and learned winemaking from the incredible circle of producers including well-known people like Jean Foillard and Yvon Metras, as well as the behind-the-scenes guru Jacques Neauport (who was the quiet right-hand to the legendary Jules Chauvet).
All of the vines are farmed organically and located in a single 7.5 hectare block known as Grand Pré. The vineyards are 30-110 years old, planted on extremely fine sandy granite soils. Thanks to incredible farming and knack for Gamay, Yann Bertrand has justifiably become one of the most sought-after producers in the region.
This new entry in the Bertrand canon (6/10 Alice) represents a celebration of ten years of making wine, six years of enduring consecutive hailstorms, and a tribute to Yann’s wife, Alice.
