PINOT GRIS Rose BERU 2018 – ORANGE/ROSE WINE, natural production, wow factor style , flavour and unique provenance, a true labour of love for a dedicated and very talented wine maker. This Pinot Gris made from fruit sourced from the northern most part of the Chablis district near Auxerre is truly a magnificent example of skin contact wine production. The colour is wild and vibrant, almost deep Rose but with that slightly hazy hue that no filtration and skin contact gives you. The nose is superb floral, yeasty, fruity, some pink grapefruit and then quince, and some stone fruits, the texture is beautiful; and the length of finish, satisfyingly long with tons of freshness. A wine that tasted blind could be a Radikon but which has something of Athenais’s feminine touch. From a personal standpoint, the wines at the Chateau de Beru by this creative and dynamic wine maker are some of my favourite in the world. This wine continues the Legacy of the tricky 2016 vintage when she had no grapes for Chablis and so scavenged fruit fro other natural growers to make a few bottles. Not all continued in the following vintages but this one did and we delighted about that.
