This Bérèche & Fils Brut Réserve, crafted from old vines and left unfiltered, presents a complex aromatic profile of ripe orchard fruits (crisp green apple, juicy pear), bright citrus zest, and compelling autolytic notes of toasted brioche, almond, and subtle hazelnut. A distinct chalky minerality underlies these primary and secondary aromas. On the palate, it’s vibrant and energetic, with a fine, persistent mousse and a full-bodied texture that is balanced by a refreshing, precise acidity. Flavors mirror the nose, leading to a long, elegant finish with lingering saline minerality and a touch of savory yeastiness.
