Bérèche's Brut Reserve is our go-to Champagne. We can't think of another Champagne that offers so much at this price.
Bérèche is one of our favorite producers in all of Champagne. Everything that he turns out is shockingly good.
Still, the value that the Brut Réserve offers is amazing.

I'm happy to offer Bérèche's Brut Réserve for $49.95 per bottle and $46.95 in 4-packs.
Raphaël Bérèche joined his family's domaine around a decade ago and swiftly established himself as one of the region's most talented young growers. In short, the style here is deeply complex and vinous with ultra-clear precision and outrageous clarity.
The Brut Réserve dramatizes the incredibly high level of Bérèche's work. While it's easy to focus on the layered complexity and overall intensity of the Brut Réserve, it's the incredible refinement that makes it really stand out.
This version of the Brut Réserve is composed exclusively on the 2018 vintage. It's the first time that the wine is based on a single year.
The excitement around the 2018 Champagne vintage is intense. The neat summary is that it's a riper and very pure vintage. What results is a mesmerizing cast of Champagnes and a great version of Brut Réserve.
One of the greatest testaments to the seriousness of Bérèche's Brut Réserve is how well it ages. Antonio Galloni talks of tasting a vertical of ten different releases, and they all aged beautifully. With a few years of bottle age, it really blossoms, gaining even more complexity and a tactile minerality.
This is a Champagne that we always encourage people to go deep on. This is especially the case for the 2018.
