WHO?
Frédéric Berne has always felt a deep connection to the land surrounding him. Encouraged by his parents and drawn to wine’s ability to express its terroir, he decided to become a winemaker. After spending several years in southern Burgundy, Frédéric embarked on his own journey in 2013. Inspired by the diversity of granite soils in Lantignié, Frédéric materialized his ideas in the heart of the village, on the grounds of Château de Vergers.
WHERE?
Frédéric owns 6 hectares of vineyards between Beaujolais Villages, Morgon, and Chiroubles, which are currently in the process of conversion to an organic model. His prime parcel in Morgon, Corcelette (covering just 1 hectare), lies on a granite-sandy substrate at an altitude of 400 meters above sea level. Corcelette is one of the most prestigious microclimates in Morgon, producing wines of exceptional intensity and captivating mineral expression.
WHY?
Corcelette is nestled within the magnificent Morgon vineyard, classified as one of the 10 official Cru sites in Beaujolais. As one of the most esteemed positions, it holds an almost cult status among professionals and enthusiasts alike. In the glass, it reveals an almost impenetrable ruby color, while seducing the nose with a captivating blend of red and black fruits; black raspberry, blackcurrant, and fresh red and black cherries wrapped in a luxurious cloak of violets, white pepper, and crushed granite.
