Bereche & Fils 2020 Vallee De La Marne Rive Gauche

100% old-vine Pinot Meunier sourced from the lieu-dit Le Misy, located in Port à Binson on the southern bank of the Marne river. Fermented with native yeasts in barrel and aged under cork, Bérêche's Rive Gauche makes a convincing case for Champagnes made from the oft-underestimated Pinot Meunier grape. The nose offers notes of spice, earth, and a hint of dried fruit. With some time in the cellar, the effusiveness of the fruit should integrate with the structure and make for even more compelling drinking.
