An exceptional wine from the Orangerie plot, which is only half a hectare. The distinctive feature of the parcel that’s surrounded by the ancient stone walls of the chateau is that instead of pure limestone, clay is the predominant soil here, and this is precisely why the wine stands out. In this case, too, the oxidative character appears, complemented by a variety of citrus notes on the nose, and roundness, substance, and softer, juicy flavours on the palate.
Athénaïs de Béru left behind a successful career when she returned from the world of finance in 2006 and took over the family estate from her father. From the very first day, she treated organic cultivation as a basic principle, and after the transition, the next step came quickly: since 2011, the entire estate has been certified biodynamic. The wines are fermented spontaneously, mainly in barrels, and after long ageing they are bottled unfiltered, with only a minimal amount of added sulphur or none at all.
