Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut is an exceptionally well balanced champagne – fresh and lively, with light aromas of citrus fruits and spring flowers. Piper-Heidsieck cuvée Brut champagne brings its own lively, vivacious and exuberant character to dry champagne’s traditional elegance and finesse. Piper-Heidsieck’s cuvée Brut combines 50 rigorously selected growths. The wine’s harmony develops over the course of slow ageing in Piper-Heidsieck’s chalk cellars. Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes give cuvée Brut its structure and elegance
Piper-Heidsieck boasts one of the largest selections of crus, which represents all the nuances of the Champagne terroir and includes both Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, a guarantee of the quality of the brand's different cuvées. Vinification has always been the perfect illustration of Piper-Heidsieck's know-how. Each cru and grape variety is vinified separately. Reserve wines from earlier years are used to create a more rounded blend and ensure the originality of the Piper-Heidsieck style. Everything depends on the art of blending, where human input is of paramount importance. The man in the shadows, the man of magic, is Régis Camus, Piper-Heidsieck's winemaker.
A sparkling clarity, pale gold in colour. The very first impressions are of bright, fresh mornings. It is reminiscent of spring blossom such as hawthorn. They lead into more fruity notes such as summer apple and pear, then citrus, with hints of warm toastiness. The next impression is lively and fresh. The citrus notes take on a certain maturity. There is passion with gentleness, lightness with spontaneity. Ideal for drinks with friends, cocktail and garden parties, nights spent enjoying every moment until dawn’s early light, informal dinners, and surprises. All manner of choice is permitted! A wine that celebrates joie de vivre, and the pleasure of getting together with the people we love
