Gérard Bertrand
Domaine de l’Aigle is located close to the village of Roquetaillade, near Limoux in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The estate covers some 47 hectares, with vines planted between 250 and 500 meters above sea level, making it one of the highest vineyards in the Haute Vallée de l’Aude, and indeed the Languedoc. Pinot Noir vines thrive in climatic conditions similar to those of Burgundy, where the grape originated; an oceanic climate with continental influences, frequent rainfall and a wide temperature range. The vines are grown in compliance with the rules of sustainable agriculture set by Terra Vitis, with traceability at every level and production techniques accredited by independent inspectors.

Vinification Details
The fruits undergo a pre-fermentation cold maceration for 5 to 8 days. In the early stages of the alcoholic fermentation, the grape skins are punched-down, little by little, to ensure optimal extraction of aromas and tannins. The maceration process lasts for around 3 weeks. The must is then lightly pressed in a pneumatic pressing machine. The free-run juice is cooled for 24 hours and then transferred to the French oak barrels for 9 months of malolactic fermentation and ageing.
