*La Merle Haut Perché Merlot*

Domaine Parazols Bertrou is an 8th-generation family-owned winery with vineyards throughout the Languedoc. In 2003, the family made a bet among themselves that they’d become known for making quality wines. Their goal was to make the wine collector’s items in wine lovers’ cellars worldwide. The beginning of that dream started in 2007 when they joined multiple export markets, expanding their reach. The family is also committed to promoting biodiversity, with over 100 different species of plants that grow amongst the vineyards. They are devoted beekeepers and make their own honey on the farm. In keeping with the nature of things, they also use wild native yeast strains in the fermentation process when making the wines. The winery named this merlot La Merle Haut Perché, which translates to "the high perched blackbird”, a signature bird at these Pays d’Oc vineyards, where blackbirds build their nests in the surrounding sequoia trees.
