This cuvée represents the “origin” of the family story and blends grapes from their historic villages sites in Fèrebrianges, Etoges, Congy, Vallée du Petit Morin. A delicate balance of freshness & unctuous texture this champagne is aged on lees, partially in foudres and 228L barrels.
Adrien Bergère did not suddenly appear with vines and a cellar. He is the next generation to a family that built their sizable estate as farmers in 1848 in the heart of the Vallée du Petit Morin. The family domaine also has one foot in the under-announced territory of Fèrebrianges, with its diverse soils, just 15 minutes south of Épernay and one in the epicenter of Grand Cru terroir, with a core of enough quantity and variation in vines to showcase an entirely new message. At the full scale the family now works 45ha. It is here where Adrien calls home and admits having so much great terroir at his disposal, at such a young age is true gift.
