Bérêche & Fils
Brut Réserve Champagne Blend
Well hello again, old friend. The Bérêche Brut Réserve pours a golden color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, macerated strawberries, apple crisp, peach pie, brioche, Marcona almonds, even some mushrooms (!!) and yet so, so fresh! The finish is dry and long with minerals for dayz. Racy acid. Bangin’. Drink now or through 2029. Disgorged 7/2019

When you see Bérêche on the list, you feel like you entered a cheat code and this bottle, disgorged 11/2021, underscores yet again the incredible value presented by the “Brut Réserve”. It’s a beautiful golden color in the glass with persistent mousse and lovely weight and viscosity in the palate. This is so rich with an abundance of fruit and yet so balanced with remarkable acidity. It’s a perfect aperitif but would play an excellent partner to any meal as well. These wines are truly special and becoming more and more elusive. I’m taking advantage while I can.

Nov 20th, 2022Popped and poured; no formal notes. A very pretty straw color with a persistent mousse. Lemon meringue, raspberries, almond croissant, and pink flowers. Powerful. The finish is rich and long. Particularly lovely with a little air and some food. These wines from Bérêche…wow. Disgorged 7/2019.

Jun 15th, 2022A striking rose gold color in the glass; I don't recall this catching my attention so much on all prior bottles!
Nose has oxidized pear, orange zest and fresh brioche.
Palate has tart tangerine, lemon pith, white grapefruit and under-ripe raspberry. Great acidity but balanced creamy notes.
Disgorged January 2021; Dosage 7 G/L; 2018 base vintage.
Always a must-buy wine, fantastic value.
