This isn’t a life-altering bubbly, but it’s a finely crafted Champagne at a reasonable price. I’m presently savoring it in an airport lounge, as are several others.
Champagne Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut NV France
Includes 12% alcohol. This consists of 50% Pinot Noir, 30% Pinot Meunier, and 20% Champagne, sourced from 240 partner growers and over 100 crus. No use of herbicide and entirely HVE 3 sustainable. It incorporates at least 30% reserve wines and matured for no less than 24 months on lees. It exhibits 8 g/l dosage.
Elegantly bright, fruit-centric and deeply enticing with understated toast, hints of spices, sweet pear, and white peach fruit, complemented by a hint of grapefruit freshness and delightful sweetness. A genius blend of eye-catching, fruit-driven Champagne that commands attraction. There’s a hint of complexity contained, warranting a bit of attention, but the highlight is the fruit and fine toast enjoyment. Score: 90/100
