Bereche et Fils, Reflet d’Antan "Le Cran de Ludes" base 2017 - Champagne Brut - 1 Magnum (1.5L)
This Maison, among the oldest in the Montagne de Reims area, was born in Ludes in 1847 and is today led by the fifth generation of the Bérèche family who is committed to the creation of unique, territorial and spontaneous Champagnes. The Reflet d'Antan is a classic Cuvée born from the assembly of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier united in a masterly balance. The first fermentation takes place in oak barrels, using indigenous yeasts, then 30% reserve wines are added, taken from full barrels which constitute the family reserve, nourished by three generations. A second fermentation follows, in the bottle, which can last up to 64 months, during which the bottles are turned manually, to bring the yeasts along the neck of the bottle. For truly trained palates!
Intense golden yellow with vivid emerald lace, on the nose it is a complex symphony of broom, candied ginger and saffron, a hint of licorice and vanilla pod, all wrapped in toasted notes. A tasting that sees the minerality supporting it, it is soft, fresh and articulated, extremely balanced between the fruity creaminess and salinity and very promising in the long persistence which suggests notable evolutions over time.
Perfect for supporting an entire meal based on seafood, it is also worth trying with a tempura. Delicious with steamed shellfish
