Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve Champagne

An opulent Champagne with the perfect balance of freshness and generosity, from the smallest of the Grandes Marques.

75cl | 12% ABV | Champagne, France | Chardonnay, Pinot Noir & Meunier

Tasting Notes

A radiant pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles. Complex pastry aromas lead the nose, with an opulent combination of ripe apricot, mango, greengages, dried fruits, pistachio and almond. The palate begins with a silky-smooth sensation and develops into ripe, fleshy apricot, melon, plum pastry notes and delicate spice. It has a perfect balance of freshness and generosity.
