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.
Passionate about his land and his craft, Bernard Van Berg has managed to uncover the mysterious and perfect balance between nature and man, enabling him to produce pure wines of great precision. He categorically refuses to use any chemicals or machinery in his vineyard. Every stage of the process is entirely manual, from ploughing the soil to harvesting the grapes. The intentionally low yields guarantee premium quality raw materials. The result is a fragrant, authentic cuvée produced exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, crafted as ‘simply as possible’.
The pale colour graced with bright tints is sublimated by an expressive bouquet combining scents of pear, yellow peach and white flowers with indulgent touches of butter. The fresh, full-bodied mouthfeel gently leads to a fresh, fruity finish.
