Champagne Perrine Fresne 'Les Basses Croix' Extra Brut 2020
Vintage Character
Champagne Perrine Fresne 'Les Basses Croix' Extra Brut 2020 is a Premier Cru Champagne from Sermiers in the Montagne de Reims, drawn from a single lieu-dit and made as a Blanc de Blancs from Chardonnay. The 2020 growing season in Champagne brought a warm, early-ripening year, giving wines with generous fruit and open texture, while this cuvée’s extra-brut balance preserves precision and drive. Sermiers is an unusual source for Chardonnay in the Montagne de Reims, where the cool Champagne climate and chalk-influenced soils help shape a style that marries ripe citrus and orchard fruit with a distinctly mineral, finely etched profile.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it shows lively aromas of green apple, lemon zest, white peach and blossom, with hints of fresh pastry, almond and crushed chalk. The palate is focused yet supple, with a fine bead, high acidity and a clean, tactile texture that carries notes of citrus oil, crisp pear and brioche into a saline, mouthwatering finish. It pairs beautifully with oysters, sole meunière, or sashimi, making it especially appealing for drinkers who enjoy grower Champagne with both energy and detail.
Winery Background
Perrine Fresne belongs to a new generation of terroir-minded récoltant-manipulant producers in Champagne, working from her family roots in Sermiers to highlight individual parcels through small-scale vinification. Her approach is centered on transparent farming, hand-harvesting and restrained dosage, with the aim of letting site and vintage speak clearly. 'Les Basses Croix' is notable not only for its single-plot identity but also for its tiny production, around 1,150 bottles, which underscores the artisanal scale of the project and the estate’s precision-first philosophy.
