Piper-Heidsieck Essentiel Extra Brut
Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Extra Brut is an exceptional, energetic and fresh Champagne that shows the solid and convincing essence of the Piper-Heidsieck brand, one of the most famous and appreciated Champagne producers in the world. It was created by combining Pinot Noir, fruity Pinot Meunier and elegant Chardonnay.
Four years of ageing have given the Essentiel range an unobtrusive charm, which is also evident in the regular growth of fine bubbles in the glass.
When Florens-Louis Heidsieck created his first vintage in 1785, he did so for the love of his life, Agathe Perthois. Piper-Heidsieck has kept his memory alive for more than two centuries, combining ambition with the craftsmanship, passion and character of those who founded the Piper legend.
The colour is clear and golden with a soft, velvety pearl finish. It is full of typical Champagne fruit aromas such as fresh citrus notes, fresh apples, pears and almonds. The palate is rich and structured. On the palate, notes of fruitcake, pear and nuts mingle with a delicious sense of sweetness, thanks to the long ageing this wine has enjoyed. The long aftertaste on the finish is fresh and citrusy.
Excellent as an aperitif. We recommend serving at a temperature of 8 to 10 °C.
