Many have considered the 2008 vintage to be one of the greatest of the decade, drawing comparisons to some of Champagne’s most legendary vintages. Charles Heidsieck Brut Millésime is crafted to showcase the distinct style that particular year, and this 2008 is plush, sumptuous and powerful!
This champagne is a blend of ten Grands and Premiers Crus, it delivers layers of aromas and flavours. It is recommended to be savoured with a meal. Allure your senses with fragrances of citrus oil, dried fruits, crisp green apple with hints of walnuts, pecans and fresh warm bread. Tickle your palate with lively bubbles and notes of ripe pear, green apple, white peach and hints of grassiness. Allow the wine to develop to evoke gorgeous lemon sorbet and yuzu with a characteristic touch of minerality. Beautifully long and nutty, caramel finish. “Impeccably balanced, this is Heidsieck’s finest vintage since the 1980s,” – Wine Advocate – Parker (95pts)
