From exciting grower Champagne producer A.Bergere, this late released Oenotheque magnum has aged on lees in their cellars for nearly 15 years before release. 2008 was an outstanding vintage, reflected in the beautiful interplay between peach, citrus, brioche and minerals in this mature, yet still fresh wine.

A Bergère is a grower Champagne based in Fèrebrianges, and with a building on the famous Avenue de Champagne in Epernay. The Bergere family have been growing grapes since 1848, with the winery founded in 1949 to release champagnes under the family name. Today they own 65 hectares of vineyards split between the prestigious Côte des Blancs, Vallée du Petit Morin and the Côte de Sezanne, which themselves are the southern sector of the greater Cotes des Blancs region. They work only with their own fruit.
Current generation Adrien Bergère heads up the estate with a primary focus on Chardonnay, low dosage across the range, extended lees ageing and judicious use of oak barrels to tease out the full potential of the wines. A range of single vineyard wines are produced alongside regional blends, and there is an enviable range of older vintages released in large format. These are exceptional wines which combine elegance and minerality with precision and complexity. The prices remain very reasonable for wines of this high level of quality, and we are confident that A. Bergère will develop into one of the region’s most desirable producers.
This rare magnum is a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, all from the Vallee du Petit Morin, with just 6 g/l dosage. The wine was disgorged in 2021, and perfectly balances richness, freshness and complexity.
