The 2016 Extra-Brut Avize Grand Cru is another compelling Champagne in this range from Bérêche. Exotic delicate and light on its feet this has so much to offer. Lemon confit graphite sage mint and dried herb inflections reveal a Champagne of notable complexity and character. The 2016 is a bit shy today but it should emerge with another year or so in bottle. Dosage is 3.5 grams per liter. Disgorged: November 2023. - By Antonio Galloni on March 2024 My tasting at Bérêche was one of the highlights of the week I spent in Champagne. Quite frankly the wines have never been better. Bérêche is among the grower estates that have made a huge leap in both quality and consistency in recent years. Everything feels elevated here of late as readers will see in gleaning through the notes. As always the focus is on picking ripe fruit and then minimal handling in the cellar. Dosage is on the low side but these Champagnes never feel austere. Chapeau.
