A Bergere - Champagne Millesime Extra Brut 2012

A Bergere Description

A grower Champagne based in Fèrebrianges, and with a building on the famous Avenue de Champagne in Epernay, the Bergere family have been growing grapes since 1848, with the winery founded in 1949 to release champagnes under the family name. Today they own 65 hectares of vineyards split between the prestigious Côte des Blancs, Vallée du Petit Morin and the Côte de Sezanne, which themselves are the southern sector of the greater Cotes des Blancs region.  They work only with their own fruit. Current generation Adrien Bergère heads up the estate with a primary focus on Chardonnay, low dosage across the range, extended lees ageing and judicious use of oak barrels to tease out the full potential of the wines.

A View from the Cellar: 92 Points

It offers up a really lovely bouquet of golden delicious apple, pear, raw almond, brioche, chalky soil tones, just a whisper of oak and a topnote of white lilies. On the palate the wine is brisk, full-bodied, focused and complex, with fine depth of fruit at the core and impressive mineral drive, snappy acids and a long, well balanced and still quite youthful finish.- John Gilman
