Investigating "place" is at the core of the ever-evolving grower Champagne discussion. Hence it was was a rare opportunity to meet the young Adrien Bergère, whose family domaine has one foot in the under-announced territory of Fèrebrianges, with its diverse soils, just 15 minutes south of Épernay and one in the epicenter of Grand Cru terroir, with a core of enough quantity and variation in vines to showcase an entirely new message.

Adrien Bergère is the next generation to a family that built their sizable estate as farmers in the heart of the Vallée du Petit Morin. At the full scale the family now works 45 hectares and Adrien admits having so much great terroir at his disposal, at such a young age is true gift. It is quite the inheritance and a brilliant space, ripe for experimentation. Barrels and foudre outnumber the steel tanks, a solera project has kicked off recently and Adrien has a line of parcellaire wines in the stacks, the first look into his personal findings from his terroir.
