Bernard Van Berg wines are known for their unique character and are highly sought after by top collectors, often eliciting excitement on social media. The 2015 vintage for Le Fourneau Blanc was noted for its big nose, with toast and a more pungent aroma. While some of Bernard Van Berg's whites from 2015 were described as soft with low acidity, the Le Fourneau Blanc, when opened 2.5 hours prior to serving, presented a huge nose of toast. The winery itself, established in 2001 by Bernard and Judith van Berg, aims to produce exceptional wines, often with very low yields achieved through meticulous pruning and viticulture, reflecting a commitment to biodynamic or organic practices. 【Rarity and cult following among Burgundy collectors】. 🍴 Food pairing suggestions: This white Burgundy would beautifully complement roasted chicken or turkey.
