History: With a long and varied history dating back to its beginnings in 1785 when it was created by Florens-Louis Heidsieck, Piper-Heidsieck is one of Champagne's most well-known yet under-estimated houses. Today, it is the most awarded Champagne house of the century, driven by continuous innovation as the first B Corp Champagne House.
Regional information: This signature cuvée of the House is a round, fresh & vibrant non-vintage Brut, recalling the rich variety of its blend of 100 crus from across the patchwork of Champagne vineyards. It has notes of toasted brioche, almond, yellow plum and green pear, and has been awarded 96 points by Wine Spectator.
Vinification: First fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. After blending, the wine was bottled and then kept for three years to mature in the cellars of Piper-Heidsieck. The yeast was expelled in a process called disgorgement and the bottle was topped up with some reserve wine. The bottles were allowed to rest for six months before being shipped all around the world.
