Castellum Rouge is a smooth, fruit‑forward red from Gérard Bertrand’s Cité de Carcassonne vineyards, where Mediterranean sunshine meets the cooler winds of the Pyrenees. A blend of Syrah and Grenache, it offers generous dark‑berry fruit, soft spice, and a supple, easy‑drinking texture. Fresh enough for weeknight sipping yet flavorful enough to pair with grilled meats or hearty pasta, Castellum Rouge delivers the kind of reliable Southern French charm that Bertrand is known for—approachable, balanced, and beautifully crafted.
