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

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."
