Bereche et Fils Cote Millesime Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru 2016 AOC 0.75l

Bereche et Fils Côte Millesime Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru 2016 AOC 0.75l is a Champagne that presents itself as a rigorous and contemporary interpretation of the purity of the Côte des Blancs, created to showcase the 2016 vintage with the precision of a wine intended for readers sensitive to minerality and balance. The story of Bereche et Fils is one of family and terroir, a house built over time with patience and respect for the vineyards, favoring artisanal production that begins with the care of the vineyard and ends with the bottle, through a cellar that is attentive to tradition yet open to innovation. The company's identity is founded on a work philosophy that prioritizes attention to detail, agronomic management that enhances the health of the grapes, and elegant winemaking, in which primary fermentation and aging on the lees are carried out with carefully calibrated times to maintain freshness and expressiveness. Distinctive features: the selection of Grand Cru parcels from the Côte des Blancs, the blend that preserves the brilliance of Chardonnay typical of this area, and the approach to dosage that tends to convey a perception of understated elegance without excess. Stylistic and sensory characteristics: in the glass, the color is a clear golden, with a fine and persistent perlage that invites thoughtful tasting; the nose reveals citrus notes of grapefruit and lemon zest, accompanied by hints of bread crust, toasted almond, and a subtle hint of white wine; on the palate, the texture is silky, the minerality is lively and saline, and the freshness supports a long, clean finish that leaves a light savory finish ideal for pairing with fish, shellfish, and mature cheeses. This wine is a cornerstone of the Bereche et Fils range, intended for those seeking a Côte des Blancs Grand Cru from the 2016 vintage onward, capable of expressing both joy and discipline, complexity and precision, without ever losing sight of balance. In line with STELT, it is a choice that favours substance, refinement and a measured character, suitable for refined tasting moments and informal ceremonies that require a wine of great lightness and longevity.
