Winemaker of Petit Balthasar and the Balthasar's big brother is Pierrick Harang. However, there is no family castle or extensive vineyards, just five generations of wine merchants and oenologists who all share the same passion to produce the best wines.

The roots of Pierrick and family are in Algeria and after Algerian independence his grandparents & parents gave up everything to flee to France. His father continued his knowledge & career there in Champagne, among other things as cellar master of the large champagne house GH. MUMM to work.

His range of wines, with a naturally lower alcohol content, are known for their delicious, fruit-driven and elegant wines. Purely for qualitative reasons, he chose not to reduce the alcohol, but to work directly on the vines. Pierrick is a freak when it comes to picking on time, finding the right parcels of fruit and most importantly stimulating your senses!

Le Bio Balthazar Minervois Syrah - Grenache Noir or the Bio Balthazar Rouge is a balanced red wine made from the Grenache and Syrah grape. The wine comes from the Minervois region in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in southern France. The Bio Balthazar has a beautiful deep red color and a complex nose with rosemary, black currants, black cherries and garrigue. The French word 'Garrigue' comes from the old Provençal word Garriga, which in turn refers to an old French word for wasteland: jarrie. This refers to a vineyard overgrown with many herbs such as thyme and bay leaf. More so, it is a reference to the influence of this terroir on the locally produced red wines. The soil is rocky and gravelly. The wine is organic, Ecocert FR-BIO-01 certified.
