A New Generation of Winemakers
Originally from Alsace and having lived in many parts of the world Annie and Laurent Gerber settled by Bordeaux to fulfill a dream of growing their own wine.
In 2007, they acquired Clos de la Barbanne, a boutique vineyard on the Southern slopes of Montagne, facing the picturesque town of Saint-Emilion. Clos de la Barbanne offers a mosaic of soils, ages, and grape varieties.
Laurent has since been committed to environmentally responsible practices by seeking out eco-friendly ways to grow grapes and produce Concerto.
Each step in the vineyard and the cellar is meant to unveil the soul of the soil and the wine.
2007-2020
Over ten years of savoir-faire
Concerto, vin d'auteur
Concerto is an exclusive niche wine composed at Clos de la Barbanne. The 10,000 vines peek towards the Abbey of Saint-Emilion. Each of them offers its essence, in return of all the attention wisely catered to them by Laurent.
Concerto is available for sale at Clos de la Barbanne. To place an order, you may contact us by email or by phone. We ship worldwide, in accordance with local import regulation.

Our Savoir-Faire
Our grapes
We pamper our grapes, from their blooming to the final handpicking. Only a few grapes are allowed on each vine, to enjoy space and sunshine.
Our corks
Corks are the wine’s best friend. We treat Concerto with the best natural cork stoppers.
They offer the right hermetical seal to favor proper ageing.
Our barrels
The barrels are exclusively made of French Oak. Our Coopers are rooted in sustainable forest management.
Our aging method
French oak barrels give subtle and spicy notes to the wine.
Concerto ages 18 months in a temperature controlled barrel cellar.
