About this house
Born of a meeting, it is above all an eternal love story: the one that will forever unite a Champenoise, Agathe Pertois, and Florens-Louis Heidsieck. The spirited, ambitious young German wanted to create a cuvée worthy of a queen, which he did in 1785, placing his champagne at the feet of Marie-Antoinette.
Two centuries later, history continues and one of the most prestigious champagne brands continues to strengthen its legend. Committed to biodiversity, this ancient Champagne House has been VDC and HVE certified since 2015.

Input
Pair this Extra Brut Champagne with fish or shellfish starters, such as scallops with creamy Parmesan risotto, or a verrine of Champagne lentils with shallot vinaigrette.
Dishes
This Cuvée Essentiel Extra Brut is the perfect accompaniment to fish and poultry dishes. Try it with free-range poultry, butternut, pumpkin and praline, or Turbot with beurre blanc sauce.
Chef's word
Arnaud Tabarec, restaurant chef at the prestigious Five Seas Hotel in Cannes, has chosen to combine the sweetness of mackerel with the enveloping character of the Essentiel Blanc de Blancs cuvée... He recommends a Maquereau cuit au sel, brûlé sur un galet niçois, bonito broth with parsley condiment and caviar from France
"This dish retraces my journey. Mackerel from Brittany, where I'm from, parsley purée from Burgundy, where I grew up, local Nice pebbles, heated in the oven and used as a baking tray, with a hint of iodine, not forgetting bonito from Asia, a region of the world I'm particularly fond of."
