From the Montagne de Reims, Bérêche et Fils has quietly become one of Champagne’s most compelling estates. Led by brothers Raphaël and Vincent, the domaine combines meticulous vineyard work with a deeply thoughtful approach in the cellar, producing wines that are precise, expressive, and unmistakably site-driven. Working across a mosaic of small parcels and farming with a hands-on, low-intervention mindset, their Champagnes balance texture, energy, and complexity—placing them firmly among the region’s most respected grower-producers.
“Reflet d’Antan” is Bérêche’s ode to memory — a Champagne built not on a single harvest, but on the patient layering of time, year on year. It’s crafted through a perpetual solera begun in the 1980s, blending reserve wines across decades and vintages to create texture, depth, and quiet complexity that no single vintage could achieve.
Fermentation occurs in neutral barrels, followed by extended aging in bottle (always a magnum) to give a more focussed wine with finer bubbles, more depth and complexity.
The nose opens with baked apple, honeycomb, and brioche, lifted by tones of citrus zest and white flowers. The palate is at once expansive and precise — orchard fruit, roasted hazelnut, and chalky minerality unfolding in seamless layers. The finish is long, dry, and whisper-smooth, an incredibly balance of freshness and maturity.
