The Bernard family estate includes over 20 hectares of vineyards around Beaumes de Venise at the near foot of Mont Ventoux at an altitude of about 300 meters. Jean-Luc Bernard is the fourth generation winemaker within the family. The vineyards are treated with all respect for nature and the wines are made in the traditional local way. That is, harvesting is done manually, the grape juice is raised in the cuves themselves and light filtering is done only just before bottling.
