It is composed of a blend of 47% Pinot Noir, 31% Meunier, 22% Chardonnay and 18% Reserve.

On the nose, it reveals hints of citrus, bread crust, almond and minerals. On the palate, it is fresh, elegant and upright, with lively acidity and a fine perlage. The finish is savoury and persistent.

Occasion and Pairing

Excellent with oysters, fish carpaccio, shellfish and fresh cheeses.

THE WINERY

Piper Heidsieck

Piper-Heidsieck is one of the most iconic and prestigious Champagne houses in France, founded in 1785 in Reims by Florens-Louis Heidsieck with the ambition of creating “a Champagne worthy of a queen,” to the point that the first cuvée was presented to Marie Antoinette. The current name was established in 1838 from the union between the Heidsieck family and Henri-Guillaume Piper, marking the beginning of an international expansion that would bring the house worldwide success. In 1995, a modern winery was inaugurated, featuring over 200 temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to vinify each plot separately. The blends are carefully crafted, and the wines are aged for extended periods to ensure elegance and complexity. Since 2018, the young and talented Émilien Boutillat has led the cellar, bringing freshness and innovation while honoring Piper-Heidsieck’s signature style. In 2022, the house became the first Champagne producer to earn the prestigious B-Corp certification, thanks to its commitment to environmental sustainability, transparency, and the use of renewable energy. Piper-Heidsieck is also one of the most awarded Champagne houses in the world and was named “Best Champagne House” by Falstaff in 2021. Today, Piper-Heidsieck represents the perfect balance of tradition and modernity: a house that combines history, innovation, style, and environmental awareness, offering Champagnes that embody French excellence and elegance. Producer/distributor name and address: Piper Heidsieck, Reims – France, 12 Allée du Vignoble. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
