Re: Olivier Bernstein, Une étoile est née
alléchante!
j’aime beaucoup les précisions et le souci du détail concernant la collaboration avec le tonnelier, ce qui lui permet d’obtenir la chauffe nécessaire pour chaque millésime.

Re: Olivier Bernstein, Une étoile est née
Il semble que le premier millésime soit 2007. Voici la petite note de Meadows sur le domaine:
Pour le millésime 2007:
In 2002 Olivier Bernstein had founded a winery in the Roussillon called the Mas la Devèze and in 2007, he elected to create a micro-négociant in Burgundy. Bernstein attended the Lycée Viticole in Beaune and did a brief stage (internship) with the world famous Henri Jayer, also in 2002. His intention is to work only with premiers and grands crus where the vines are very old. Bernstein harvests the fruit himself, does the vinification at his winery in Gevrey-Chambertin and the élevage takes place in 100% new barrels that he has specifically crafted to his specifications from the Bercay forest. The unfiltered and unfined wines will then be bottled by hand. Not surprisingly, quantities of each wine are very small as there just isn't that much old vines upper level fruit available - at any price. As to the wines, there is frankly something vaguely Jayer-like to them in that they are noticeably oaky but they are also well made with excellent underlying material.
I have reflected my enthusiasm for the raw materials in the scores but I offer two admonitions: one is that there is no track record here to base aging windows on so what you have is more an intuitive estimate based on the structure than based on actual experience; and two, I am making an assumption that the material is good enough to eventually absorb the considerable oak influence. In some cases there will probably always be some residual oak influence even when the wines are mature. How one feels about that personally is of course a highly individualistic preference. I point this out as some people loved mature Jayer wines, and paid very high prices to enjoy them, and some simply found the wines too oaky. For the record, I was one of those who sometimes found the oak to be overly intrusive, particularly in some of the lower level Jayer wines. On the other hand, when Jayer matched well the oak and the vintage, the wines were magic. Be all of that as it may, I believe that it's fair to say that Bernstein has certainly crafted some truly lovely wines for his first vintage in Burgundy. If he can follow it up in future vintages, this will be an address to watch with anticipation.
Pour le millésime 2008:
I am happy to report that Olivier Bernstein has followed up his auspicious debut with a set of terrific '08s that are even better than what he crafted in 2007. He told me that he changed two aspects for the 2008s, which are to have reduced the percentage of new wood somewhat, which is to say to between 70 and 80% rather than 100%. The second is that for four of the eight wines 40 to 50% whole clusters were used in the vinification, which understandably changes the character of the wines. As explained in Issue 33, Bernstein was influenced by Henri Jayer but as Jayer was an arch opponent of using stems, this clearly is a relatively radical departure from the so-called Jayer method. Bernstein also noted that he is "much happier with the vineyards that I'm working because I now know them a bit better and was able to avoid certain small mistakes that I made last year. Viticulturally speaking, 2008 was not the easiest vintage and to be absolutely certain that we were working with the absolute best fruit possible, we did three sorting passes, once at véraison, once just before the harvest and then again during the picking. We'll see how the wines turn out but in my mind there is no question that we were working with better raw materials in 2008 than in 2007. The '08s are classic burgundies and I like them a great deal because they speak so clearly of their origins. None of the '08s resemble one another, which is really why Burgundy exists." In my reviews of the Bernstein '07s, I expressed some concern about the level of wood and while in the three in-bottle examples I tried, it is not invisible, neither is it invasive. In sum, this is definitely an address to watch carefully as the quality is most impressive as the '08s have picked up purity and transparency relative to their '07 counterparts.

Re: Olivier Bernstein, Une étoile est née
Je n'ose pas écrire, ça fait un peu biaisé!
Je peux par contre me permettre de dire que j'ai rarement reçu autant de félicitations pour une "découverte". Unanimement, chaque vin semblent avoir été grandement apprécié. Grande pureté de fruit et grande transparence des terroirs.
