Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve NV (Gift Boxed)

Description

Product Description: A definitive expression of the Charles Heidsieck house style. The Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve NV (Gift Boxed) embodies precision, generosity and depth, qualities refined since the house was founded in 1851. Comprising around sixty crus, this multi-vintage blend balances 40 percent Pinot Noir, 40 percent Chardonnay and 20 percent Meunier, with an exceptional proportion of reserve wines averaging ten years of age. Extended lees ageing of seven years in chalk cellars imparts remarkable texture and complexity. Oger Grand Cru Chardonnay brings richness and breadth, Ambonnay Grand Cru Pinot Noir lends structure and red fruited power, and Verneuil Meunier contributes balance and supple charm. The result is a Champagne of layered detail and seamless harmony, creamy, refined and enduring. It is a wine of quiet luxury, suitable for refined celebrations or pairing with scallops, roasted poultry or aged Comte.
