Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve 12% Vol. 0,75l in Giftbox

The Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve 12% is the emblematic cuvée of the venerable Champagne house Charles Heidsieck, blending an exceptionally broad selection from around 60 Champagne crus. The blend consists of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, and 20% Meunier. Three origins particularly shape its characteristic style: Oger, a Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs, contributes generous Chardonnay character; Ambonnay, a Grand Cru in the Montagne de Reims, provides power and structure with its Pinot Noir; while Verneuil from the Vallée de la Marne, with its Meunier, ensures balance and a smooth texture. Presented in a 0.75-liter bottle and gift box, this complex Champagne Brut Réserve is also an excellent choice for a high-quality gift.

During vinification, the individual crus and grape varieties are processed separately in stainless steel tanks. In addition, 5–10% of the wines are vinified in used Burgundian oak barrels. The 50% reserve wines play a significant role in the characteristic house style, contributing additional maturity, smoothness, and aromatic complexity. Slow and extended aging in the historic chalk cellars further contributes to the refined development of this Champagne. 

Thus, the Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve combines meticulous blending, an exceptionally high proportion of reserve wine, and traditional Champagne craftsmanship to create a sophisticated, multifaceted cuvée.
