Founded in 1851, Charles Heidsieck is one of the most admired Champagne houses thanks to the unrivalled and consistently high quality of its wines. The 2012 millésime was composed of ten Grand and Premier Crus (Oger, Vertus, Chouilly, Cuis, Verzy, Aÿ, Ludes, Ambonnay, Tauxières and Avenay) each meticulously selected by the Chef de Caves.

60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, the nose shows subtle toasted and smoked notes with a touch of liquorice alongside fruity notes of apricot, blackthorn, quince and fresh almonds. The palate is mineral and taut with excellent freshness, with notes of quince, vanilla and peaches on the mid-palate, followed by a crisp finish. A lovely vintage which will continue to develop great complexity and generosity over time. Awarded a Silver Medal in the Decanter World Wine Awards 2020.

Soon to be released in magnum, the 2012 Brut Millésimé continues to show well, delivering aromas of citrus zest, crisp orchard fruit, freshly baked bread, buttery pastry and beeswax and framed by a deft touch of smoky reduction. Medium to full-bodied, racy and chiseled, with fine depth at the core and a long, penetrating finish, this bottle was disgorged in summer 2021. - William Kelley

Where Heritage Meets the Finesse of Time

For nearly two centuries, Charles Heidsieck has stood as a beacon of excellence in the world of Champagne, crafting some of the most expressive and meticulously aged wines in the region. Founded in 1851 by the visionary Charles-Camille Heidsieck, the house quickly earned a reputation for bold innovation and unwavering quality. Nicknamed “Champagne Charlie” for his pioneering efforts in introducing Champagne to America, Heidsieck’s adventurous spirit lives on in every bottle. The maison’s historic chalk cellars, dating back to the Gallo-Roman era, provide the ideal conditions for the long ageing that defines Charles Heidsieck’s signature depth and complexity.

Renowned for its opulent texture, rich aromas, and refined balance, Charles Heidsieck Champagne is crafted using an exceptionally high proportion of reserve wines, some aged for over 10 years. This dedication to extended maturation results in an unmistakable creaminess and layered complexity. From the elegant Brut Réserve to the prestigious Blanc des Millénaires, every cuvée reflects the house’s meticulous craftsmanship and commitment to excellence. With a legacy built on time, patience, and audacious creativity, Charles Heidsieck remains one of Champagne’s most distinguished and sought-after names
