THE WINERYCesarini Sforza
Charles Heidsieck is the smallest of the Maisons de Reims. Founded by Charles Camille, grandson of Florens-Louis, son of Charles and Amélie Henriot, back in 1851, when he bought 47 crayères in which to vinify the grapes grown by his cousin Ernest Henriot. Today, the Maison Heidsieck is the benchmark among small, but high value and quality companies. The special feature of the Maison are the large underground chalk quarries that extend over 8 kilometres of galleries, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Millions of bottles are stored inside, with maturation on the lees for up to forty years. The style of Heidsieck Champagne is recognisable and synonymous with harmony and generosity in its aromatic profile. Vinification only in stainless steel until malolactic fermentation is complete, long maturation on the lees and high sugar levels. This awareness confers longevity and elegance to the Maison's Champagnes. Name and address of producer/distributor: Charles Heidsieck -12 Allée du Vignoble, 51100 Reims - France. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
