Château de Beru
The Béru family has been owning the historical Château de Béru domain for 400 years. All the vines were uprooted during the philloxera crisis. It was only in 1987 that the Comte Éric de Béru, out of passion for wine, undertook to replant the entire vineyard,.
In 2005, after having worked a few years in finance in Paris Athénaïs decided to come back to the family estate to run the domain with her mother Laurence. They have invested considerable means to improve the production quality and give a fresh start to the domain. These tremendous efforts and the choice to adopt organic farming are beginning to bear fruits. The wines of Chateau Beru are sold all over the world, from New York to Tokyo. Athénaïs says “My objective is to make a natural white wine that respects the fundamental values of the soil. I cannot imagine growing vines in any other way”.
Athénaïs has joined the "Femmes et Vins de Bourgogne" (Women and Wines of Burgundy) association, which gives her a unique opportunity to exchange and to share her passion with other local outstanding women winemakers.
