Grapevines enter the flowering phase, a nerve-wracking period for growers, since the tiniest disruptions (such as rain) to the delicate flowers can mean a sad vintage...

If you were here, you could take a walk through them with us and you would notice a very light and delicate fragrance in the air.

Vines used in wine-making are generally hermaphroditic, containing both male and female reproductive organs!

💮 Each of the flower buttons has a cap of petals to protect the reproductive organs inside. Vines contain both male and female reproductive organs, and so are capable of pollenating themselves. The conditions have to be right however for this to occur.🍇
The flower caps fall away during flowering. If it rains a lot or the temperatures are cool☔, the floral caps aren’t able to detach themselves properly, and the fecundation can’t take place, which means no fruit to harvest. That is known as "𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑢𝑟𝑒".

Want to do a little wine tasting and more ?
This is a lovely place to try some of our local wines from the Duras appellation.

Les Bertins is my local vineyard and I have spent many years enjoying their wines and conviviality. It is a small family run estate of three generations.

You will get a warm welcome here in a beautiful setting, great way to spend an evening.

Mondays from 5pm ….
