Having undergone a growth inspired by organic agriculture, this cuvée comes from the eponymous locality of Chardonnay. It benefits from exposure to the south and the effect of its chalky terroir. Produced in an understated way, the wine is the result of slow fermentation on lees in French oak barrels and an élevage of 18 months in barriques. It therefore has a beautiful aromatic finesse and the ideal complexity to accompany dishes with a creamy texture, for example.

Blanc Bérêche et Fils serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Noix de Saint-Jacques à la sauce au Champagne, Piccata de veau au citron, Quiche au maroilles.

    Information about domain Bérêche et Fils

    Bérêche et Fils has been a well-established maison since the 19th century. The Bérêche brothers, Raphaël (winemaker) and Vincent (head of the vineyard) strive to produce champagne with personality, from top plot selections and the most natural winemaking possible. The family domain has existed since the 18th century, but it is these two brothers who have raised it to the top of the Champagne vineyards. In addition to the Bérêche et fils family domain, the two brothers have created a trading structure called Raphaël and Vincent Bérêche. This division is very rare in Champagne where the maisons usually mix the lands and their own purchases. The grapes are selected with the greatest attention: the soils are ploughed, substances are banned and barrel aging is proudly supported. The range is around the Côte, Montagne and Vallée in the name of the three great sub-regions of Champagne followed by the name of the terroir. The two brothers have tasted hundreds of samples to achieve 6 cuvées of excellence. A domain which is a point of reference and a safe bet.
