Reviving a Rare Craftsmanship

At Bérat Schenk, certain practices have never vanished. While most estates have gradually embraced more modern methods, the house has remained committed to a way of working where each step retains an artisanal dimension.

This dedication to preserving time-honoured techniques is not driven by nostalgia; it reflects a deep conviction that time and precision shape the character of great champagnes.

Tradition in Service of Wines

Located in Boursault, at the heart of the Vallée de la Marne, the estate benefits from a terroir where Meunier has long found one of its finest expressions.

Combined with Pinot Noir, it creates generous and structured cuvées, capable of combining aromatic richness and balance.

Fermentation in oak casks, now rare in Champagne, adds an extra depth without ever overshadowing the fruit's identity, while manual riddling perpetuates a demanding expertise.

Champagnes Crafted for the Table

Bérat Schenk prioritises a human-scale production where each bottle receives meticulous attention.

This dedication is reflected in expressive champagnes, characterised by impressive power and a true presence on the palate.

These wines naturally complement gastronomy, from robust dishes to desserts for the Demi-Sec cuvées.

Ultimately, these champagnes mirror the estate itself: authentic, patient, and true to a certain vision of the winegrower's craft.
