Description

To The Eye : The deep golden robe presents a delicate, lively effervescense. A voluptous impression.
On The Nose : Warm and autumn-like, the nose offers fragrances of candied chestnuts and honey with suprising notes of praline and lightly toasted hazelnuts.
On The Palate : The incredible balance offers the firmness expected of a great champagne as well as the opulence of roasted apricots, dates and figs which delicately coat the palate.

In 1851, young Charles Heidsieck founded his own Champagne house in Reims. He understood that the United States was an important emerging market, so he traversed America repeatedly north to south promoting his new brand. The stylish entrepreneur became known lovingly as Champagne Charlie.
Charles Heidsieck Champagne is distinguished by the high proportion of reserve wines in the Brut Rserve. 40% of the blend is comprised of reserve wines averaging 10 years old, giving the wine uncommon depth and complexity. In addition to the non-vintage Brut Rserve and Ros Rserve, the winery produces a Vintage Brut, Vintage Ros and the prestige cuve Blanc des Millenaires.

Only 60 crus from Champagne are blended to create Charles Heidsieck Champagnes, but the three stylistic pillars that give the Brut Rserve its distinct character are Grand Cru Chardonnay from Oger in the Cte des Blancs, Grand Cru Pinot Noir from Ambonnay in the Montagne de Reims, and the distinct Pinot Meunier from Verneuil in the Valle de Marne.
