Il \u00e9tait \u00e9crit quelque part, en mandarin sans doute, que nous ne nous rencontrerions jamais en Suisse… L’\u0153nologue G\u00e9rard Colin est mort d’une crise cardiaque le 8 f\u00e9vrier 2017 lors de son retour annuel en France.<\/strong> Il devait s\u00e9journer au Domaine du Burignon appartenant \u00e0 la Ville de Lausanne, quelques jours plus tard. Et la triste nouvelle nous est parvenue \u00e0 Florence…
\nJ’avais rencontr\u00e9 G\u00e9rard Colin<\/strong> il y a une dizaine d’ann\u00e9es. Pr\u00e9sident de jury au Concours de Shanghai organis\u00e9 par le Concours mondial de Bruxelles, j’avais essay\u00e9 de me rancarder sur les vins chinois. D\u00e9j\u00e0, G\u00e9rard \u00e9tait un incontournable. Et \u00e0 l’escale de Bangkok, moi qui me r\u00e9jouissais par avance de faire son portrait, j’\u00e9tais tomb\u00e9 sur un news magazine, \u00e9dition asiatique, qui avait fait de lui sa photo de une, suivie d’une grande interview.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nSur place, on s’\u00e9tait li\u00e9s d’amiti\u00e9 et j’avais d\u00e9gust\u00e9 en petit comit\u00e9 ses premiers vins de Grace Vineyards<\/em>. C’est lui qui a mis ce domaine, toujours au sommet, sur orbite. Puis, lors d’un voyage m\u00e9morable avec G\u00e9rald B\u00e9roud<\/strong> et la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Suisse-Chine sur la Route de la Soie qui est aussi celle du vin, je n’avais pu l’atteindre et j’avais perdu sa trace. A Urumqi, on avait enfin r\u00e9ussi: coup de chance incroyable, il vinifiait \u00e0 Tulufan, o\u00f9 notre groupe passa une formidable soir\u00e9e en sa compagnie.<\/p>\n

Ensuite, il y a deux ans, je suis all\u00e9 le trouver \u00e0 Talia (les deux photos)<\/em> dans le Shandong, o\u00f9 nous avons longuement parl\u00e9 des m\u00e9rites compar\u00e9s de cette r\u00e9gion, o\u00f9 il avait am\u00e9nag\u00e9 ex nihilo le domaine de Lafite-Rothschild<\/em>, et du Ningxia<\/em>, o\u00f9 nous avions \u00e9t\u00e9 tous les deux, \u00e0 deux ans d’intervalle, jur\u00e9s dans le concours de cette r\u00e9gion qui revendique d’\u00eatre la meilleure de Chine pour des vins de domaines, \u00e0 la fronti\u00e8re de la Mongolie.<\/p>\n

On avait parl\u00e9 de vinification sans soufre, de c\u00e9pages r\u00e9sistants aux maladies de la vigne, comme le Divico suisse. Selon G\u00e9rard Colin<\/strong>, ce c\u00e9page rouge pourrait avoir un grand avenir en Chine, comme le marselan, plant\u00e9 assez largement.<\/p>\n

A 60 ans pass\u00e9, cet aventurier hors du commun, n\u00e9 \u00e0 Madagascar, alors colonie fran\u00e7aise, en mettant le cap sur la Chine, avait chang\u00e9 sa vie, mais aussi la face du vin…<\/p>\n

On est plus riche de l’avoir connu.\u00a0Merci G\u00e9rard!<\/strong>
