Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The extra-brut dosage of 4 g/L unleashes all the natural vivacity of Chardonnay — bright citrus, zest and chalky minerality held in perfect tension.
Roundness
The 35% reserve wines and malolactic fermentation bring a creamy, enveloping texture that beautifully balances the grape variety's natural tension.
Intensity
The expression remains elegant and precise, favouring finesse over concentration.
Length
The saline, mineral finish lingers with clarity, fading gracefully on notes of acacia honey and toasted almonds.

TASTING NOTES

Pale gold in the glass with green highlights, animated by a fine and persistent effervescence. On the nose, a delicate bouquet of white blossom, lemon, yuzu and toasted brioche, underpinned by a subtle, chalky minerality. On the palate, bright citrus and a refined, creamy texture evolve towards touches of acacia honey before a saline, pure and remarkably persistent finish.

Piper-Heidsieck

About this house

Founded in 1785 by Florens-Louis Heidsieck, Piper-Heidsieck is one of the oldest and most distinguished houses in Champagne. Its international renown was forged in the nineteenth century by Christian Heidsieck and his brother-in-law Henri-Guillaume Piper, who transformed it into one of the most widely exported labels in the world, gracing the tables of the Russian imperial court.

Today, under the stewardship of cellar master Émilien Boutillat, Piper-Heidsieck upholds a resolutely precise and celebratory style, blending centuries of expertise with a boldly contemporary sensibility. The house is equally renowned for its close ties with the world of cinema, as the official champagne of the Cannes Film Festival.
