The 2008 vintage produced by Maison A. Bergère is a champagne with empyreumatic aromas.
This cuvée is composed of Chardonnay (60%) and Pinot Noir (40%) from the terroirs of Fèrebrianges, Etoges, and Congy in the Petit Morin Valley. These chalky, clay-limestone soils produce very fine grapes.
The 2008 vintage is one of the finest in recent years in Champagne. A rainy winter was followed by a mild spring and, above all, a beautiful September, resulting in superb grapes at harvest time. 2008 is undoubtedly an exceptional year in Champagne.
Vinification and aging on lees are carried out in stainless steel vats, followed by malolactic fermentation. After bottling, the bottles undergo a long aging process on lees and late disgorging. The wine is not filtered in order to preserve all its qualities.
The nose and palate resonate together with aromas of roasting, toast, and grilling.
