Information
Renowned Belgian photographer and wine enthusiast Bernard Van Berg changed the course of his life in the early 2000s, settling in Meursault with his wife Judith to devote himself to winemaking. There, he took over a two-hectare vineyard planted with Chardonnay, Aligoté, Pinot Noir and Gamay, including vines dating back to 1950. The vineyard has been farmed organically, certified since 2008, without fertilisers or plant protection products. The vines are tended like a small garden, with the soils ploughed by horse. Naturally, yields are extremely low. The same natural approach continues in the winery, where there is no destemming, no added yeasts or enriching, and sulphur additions are kept to an absolute minimum. The wines are aged in new casks.
Nestled at the heart of the prestigious Meursault terroir, the estate produces regional appellation wines by practising the most natural viticulture possible. Nothing alters the nature of the soil here, and absolutely no chemicals are used. Every stage is carried out by hand, both in the winery and in the vineyard. Each plot is carefully worked on horseback, reflecting the approach of a passionate winemaker who values quality over quantity. In the winery, the hand-picked fruit is vinified as naturally as possible, without destemming or adding yeast, using minimal doses of sulphur. The wines are then aged for 18 months in new casks.
The glistening ruddy colour reveals a fresh, fruity nose, with a unique vegetal character. Concentrated and flavoursome, it offers delicate tannins and a persistent, fruity finish. This cuvée promises superb tasting experiences from its earliest years.
