Bernard Van Berg, the celebrated Belgian photographer turned vigneron, farmed these two hectares like a garden: organic, plowed by horse, wild yeasts, minimal sulfur, and his motto on every label — \"Le Vin Le Plus Simplement\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe bottled this cuvée in vanishingly small quantities: recent vintages counted just 279 bottles, each numbered by hand. Intense and tightly knit — hazelnut from the barrel, saline minerality bordering on iodine, and a finish once described as staying \"as if you still had the wine in your mouth\". The same critic called it possibly the finest Aligoté he had ever tasted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2018 Van Berg retired and passed these very vines to Tino Kuban, whose Les Jardins Vivants wines now rank among the hardest allocations in all of Burgundy. The estate under Van Berg's name no longer exists — this is the master's own bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bernard Van Berg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49258395795764,"sku":"BJ-FR-BVB-GTB-15","price":335000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/0451\/8964\/files\/IMG-3980.jpg?v=1787147861","url":"https:\/\/bottlesjapan.com\/products\/bernard-van-berg-les-gouttes-blanc-2015-750ml","provider":"Bottles Japan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
