Château de Béru
The story of Château de Béru is one of remarkable triumph over adversity, due entirely to the work of an incredible family. This château has been owned by the de Bérus for some 400 years, with vines growing on the site where the magnificent house now stands for some time before even this. Château de Béru enjoys a formidable reputation amongst Burgundy enthusiasts and insiders, but limited production and exclusivity mean it is always bought up rapidly and rarely available to purchase.
The vines of Château de Béru were annihilated by phylloxera in the 1800s, and the exceptional soils of their various plots were left barren for almost 100 years. This was until the Comte Eric de Béru decided to replant the estate's vineyards in 1987. The most significant of which was their finest monopole (entirely owned by Château de Béru), Clos Béru. Those of us who love white Burgundy should certainly be thankful to the Comte Eric, and perhaps raise a glass of his own wine in toast to his hard work and foresight!
In total, Château de Béru manages and produces wines from 12 hectares, all located on the southern slopes of the Béru Valley on the Chablis Grand Cru foothills. As is fitting for a Domaine which bears the family name, Château de Béru is run by Athénaïs de Béru, who works tirelessly to advance the already outstanding quality of her wines, whilst simultaneously pursuing organic and biodynamic winemaking at its very best.
