    September 29, 2023 - 2008 Champagne - 25 top names tasted blind: Wonderful nose here with pinot spice, red apples, very Selosse style aromas and density, oxidative without the Sherry spectrum. Very dense palate, generous and dry, typical grower style. Very grand showing of Bereche.

    October 27, 2019 - Disgorged 11/2015. 3 g/l dosage, 50% PN, 50% Chard. This is the most interesting Champagne that I have had in some time. Distinctly flinty, with pear, apple and a refreshing chalky salinity. There is also a savory note in the finish. This was uniquely good, will last a long time.

    September 14, 2018 - This was a curious showing. The wine initially showed a rather green, shrill personality but with a couple of hours of aeration a richer more generous personality emerged. Like my other experience with this wine, there's a clear oak signature but I found it pleasant and it played well in the experience. Based on this bottle I will hold my last for at least a few more years.

    August 19, 2018 - Très beau champagne à la belle vinosité, semble plus évolué que son âge, à voir comment il va évoluer.

    July 26, 2018 - really great drink. terrific cut and precision, but still had gobs of fruit. had i tasted this blind, i may have thought it 100% chard; despite it being a 50-50 mix of chard-pinot. my kind of bubbles - painful intensity!
