Champagne Bérêche et Fils - Campania Remensis - Rosé 2021
Campania Remensis Rosé 2021 from Champagne Bérêche et Fils is a cuvée of character, deeply rooted in the history and terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, interpreted here with contemporary sensitivity and absolute rigor. The deep pink robe, with delicate coppery reflections, is animated by a fine and persistent effervescence that heralds a serious and structured substance. The nose opens with expressive aromas of wild strawberry, ripe raspberry, and fresh cherry, complemented by notes of blood orange and a subtle spicy touch. Upon aeration, nuances of dried rose, light tea, and damp chalk appear, signatures of the chalky soils worked with precision. The whole is intense, upright, and refined, far from a purely gourmand rosé, with true aromatic depth. From the first sniff, the wine asserts a strong and unique personality.
On the palate, the attack is broad and energetic, supported by a remarkable vinous structure for a rosé champagne. The substance unfolds with density, sustained by a fine acidity that stretches the mouth and brings great length. Flavors of red fruits blend with notes of citrus, mild spices, and a very precise, almost saline mineral framework. The bubbles are perfectly integrated, serving the texture more than the effervescence, reinforcing the sensation of wine above all. The work on lees and the controlled dosage give the wine a remarkable balance between power, freshness, and finesse. The finish is long, structured, marked by red fruits, chalk, and a slight noble bitterness that extends the tasting. It is a gastronomic rosé, built to last and evolve.
Campania Remensis Rosé 2021 is an excellent table champagne, capable of accompanying bold and refined dishes. It pairs beautifully with gourmet cuisine centered on white meats, pink duck, tuna, or well-mastered spicy dishes. It can also be enjoyed alone, in a moment of attentive tasting, to appreciate all its complexity and vinous dimension. Served around 11 to 12 °C in a large glass, it gradually reveals all its aromatic layers. With excellent aging potential, it will gain even more depth and harmony over time. It is a great terroir rosé champagne, demanding and refined, which powerfully illustrates the vision and know-how of Bérêche et Fils.
