Champagne Bérèche et Fils Les Beaux Regards Extra Brut 1er Cru 2020
Montagne de Reims, Champagne, FranceCreated in 1847, Champagne Bérèche et Fils is a grower with 9.5 biodynamically farmed hectares of vineyards, predominantly situated in Montagne des Reims. Brothers Raphaël and Vincent Bérêche are the current generation running the family estate. Terroir-focused, they farm without herbicides, and all wines undergo tirer à liege, where the second fermentation takes place under cork rather than capsule. This Bdb comes off 2 vineyards in Ludes, the eldest, Les Beaux Regards, was planted in 1902. This BdB was native fermented in wood before moving to bottle unfined and unfiltered, where it remained for 3+ years. This bottle was disgorged in January 2024 in 3 g/L. Such a complete champagne, with bright lemon, green apple threaded with oyster shell salinity and crushed stones. There's lovely purity and gravitas to this structured, serious wine, lingering long on the palate with a chalky hum.Tasted: 03 December 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| QC | $156.00 | 750ml | SAQ |
