Product Notes

The Piper-Heidsieck Rare Champagne Millésime is a truly exceptional indulgence. This finely crafted bubbly exudes a radiant gold hue with a captivating aroma of tropical fruits and flowers. A sip introduces layers of complex flavours encapsulating hints of kiwi, honey and freshly baked brioche, underpinned by its characteristically precise minerality. Its sparkling finesse and lingering notes of nuts and citrus makes each sip blissfully heady. An outcome of meticulous selection and production, which only occurs during vintage years, this Rare Millésime is a testament to Piper-Heidsieck's passion in creating exquisite champagne. A divine, fulfilling indulgence.

Tasting Notes

This Champagne is crystal-clear in colour, with bright yellow hues. On the nose, there are aromas of apricot pastries, orange zest and mango, followed by more pronounced notes of vanilla, toast and Oriental spices. The complex bouquet of spices leads to a delicate, long finish. Opulent, rich and intense, Rare 2006 is a testament to this sunny vintage resulting in a Champagne with great concentration.

About the Winery

Piper-Heidsieck

Piper-Heidsieck winery is an emblem of prestigious elegance tucked away in the heart of Reims, France. The winery’s history dates back to 1785 and embodies the pioneering spirit of Florens-Louis Heidsieck, who devoted his life to making a wine worthy of being gifted to a queen. Since then, almost two hundred and fifty years later, Piper-Heidsieck has grown into a celebrated champagne house.

The essence of the winery is not its illustrious past; rather, it is the delectable craftsmanship that goes into every bottle. Each stage of production- from picking the grapes, fermenting, blending to ageing - is meticulously executed to ensure superior quality. One cannot help but appreciate the harmony that exists within every sipped glass.

Piper-Heidsieck doesn’t just produce champagne; they create sensory masterpieces. Each champagne holds a fascinating combination of rich textures, complex aromas and enchanting notes. Whether it’s the reveal of the Brut NV with its crisp, vibrant flavours and the seductive notes of almond and fresh hazelnuts, or the hypnotic allure of the Cuvée Brut’s elegant mousse and sparkling gold colour, one sip is all it takes to experience the magic.

Beyond the bottles, the winery is a marvel to behold. Its cellars, grand vaults of chalk stretching for miles, are a testament to Piper-Heidsieck's age-old tradition. A tour of the winery showcases not just the storing and fermentation process - but also the dedication to excellence that Piper-Heidsieck continually lays claim to.

In a nutshell, Piper-Heidsieck is more than just a winery. It’s a brand that prides itself on a harmonious blend of history, masterful skill and an indomitable dedication to ensuring every bottle bares the mark of luxury. Whether you’re savouring a glass or simply marvelling at the winery’s aesthetic appeal, Piper-Heidsieck offers an experience that is nothing short of exceptional. The creation of Piper-Heidsieck is not a static process, it’s a labor of love that is deeply embedded within each bottle that comes from this exceptional winery.
