Tasting Notes
The vineyard is located 300m above the sea level and around the castle. The vine plot is surrounded by a wall dating from the 12th century. The soil is made up of Kimmeridgian bed rock plunging under an island of clay on the surface. The wine is aged 12 months in 350L oak barrels and 6months in tank on fine lees and bottled with minimal sulphur. – Importer Note
The Béru family have owned the historical Château de Béru domain for 400 years. At the beginning of the 20th century when the phylloxera crisis hit all the vines were uprooted leaving the estate without its source of income. Only in 1987 the Comte Eric de Béru, out of passion for wine, replanted the entire vineyard, and in particular, the famous Clos Béru. His daughter Athénaïs now runs the domain. Since converting to biodynamics, Athénaïs' first vintage was 2005 and in the years that followed she has become one of the most revered and influential winemakers in Chablis. She now manages 15 hectares on the classic soils of Chablis, kimmeridgian clay and stones. Our visit with Athenais was truly inspirational. She is an amazing winemaker of incredible purity and virtue. - Importer Note
