Chablis Terroirs de Béru AOC 2022

Wine Description for Chablis Terroirs de Béru AOC 2022 from Château de Béru

Colour & Appearance

Medium golden yellow with delicate green reflections – a classic appearance of a young Chablis that promises freshness and vibrancy.

Nose

Delicate yet profound, this 2022 presents itself with impressive clarity. Apple, pear and apricot form the fruity foundation, whilst subtle toasted almond notes add complexity. The true hallmark, however, is the pronounced mineral character: oyster shells and sea breeze – that unmistakable Kimmeridgian signature that defines great Chablis.

Palate

Elegant and refreshing, with a precision that delights. The delicate fruit is carried by a vibrant acidity that lends the wine tension and drinkability. Remarkable is the juicy texture paired with a saline minerality that underscores the maritime character. Here the signature of the terroir reveals itself in its purest form.

Finish

Persistent and clear, with lingering mineral notes and an appetite-whetting freshness that immediately calls for the next sip.

Terroir & Origin

The northerly situated parcels of Château de Béru are characterised by a strong presence of Kimmeridgian limestone – that fossilised seabed which lends Chablis its characteristic minerality. This cuvée is a precise expression of the hills of Béru and their unique geological imprint.

Grape Variety & Vinification

100% Chardonnay, vinified as a blend of various parcels. The extended lees ageing in vats and barrels lends the wine additional texture and emphasises the purity of the terroir expression, without masking the crystalline clarity.

Food Pairing Suggestions

An ideal companion to seafood, Dover sole with chervil-Chablis sauce, oysters, grilled fish or a chanterelle risotto with green asparagus. The saline minerality makes it the perfect partner for everything from the sea.

Special Features

A Chablis that unites tradition and precision – an honest, straightforward wine that expresses its terroir without embellishment. The 2022 vintage shows itself both accessible and expressive.
