YOUR DELIVERY OPTIONS:
The great grower Champagnes that excite Champagne lovers these days tend to fall into a certain category, with low dosage, low sulphur, and a decidedly edgy vibe. We love them. But one grower has managed to gain worldwide fameโnot to mention a cult-like obsession here in the U.S.โwithout going in that direction: Bรฉrรชche & Fils.
On paper, at least, everything about Bรฉrรชche is classical. This starts with history, as this is a domaine that was founded just before the U.S. Civil War. It continues with land. They don't farm some obscure corner of Champagne, but in its historic heart, with plots scattered around the Montagne de Reims and the Vallรฉe de la Marne.
Traditional and classical, perhaps, and yet something sets it apart: sheer excellence. Raphaรซl and Vincent Bรฉrรชche's intense focus on high quality farming and precise work in the cellar is exactly the sort of hard work that was too often missing from the pre-grower Grand Marques. And it results in wines that peopleโno matter how geeky their Champagne tastesโjust love.
