The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
The cream of the crop of Piper Heidsieck Champagne. Champagne houses always know how to show off their Blanc de Blancs champagne. Blanc de Blancs means that only white grapes—read: Chardonnay—are used to create the champagne. Blanc de Blancs champagnes excel in fullness and flavor, ensuring that the wheat is separated from the chaff.
Champagne house Piper Heidsieck was founded after cellar master Piper and the widow Heidsieck married. Together, they continued to produce the house's exquisite champagnes. Piper Heidsieck is a highly distinctive champagne house. It began at its very inception: none other than Marie-Antoinette was an immediate fan of Piper-Heidsieck's bravado. It was certainly not the first celebrity to fall in love with Piper Heidsieck: Marilyn Monroe, Fred Astaire, Al Pacino, Jean-Paul Gaultier, and Viktor & Rolf: all were happy to be seen clinking bottles of Piper Heidsieck.
Only the finest Chardonnay grapes were used for Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs. They were hand-picked and hand-selected before being pressed. Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs is uniquely dry. The cellar master produced this champagne with almost no residual sugar. He is convinced that the Chardonnay grapes are already so good that they don't need the sweetness. A single sip of Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs is enough to convince us of this.
Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs is truly the icing on the cake. Your senses will be in overdrive as soon as the champagne cork leaves the bottle with an elegant pop. Its golden yellow color in the glass is already making your mouth water. The aroma and taste are opulent and elegant. A chic glass of champagne with hints of nectarine, apricot, and peach. The subtle notes of roasted hazelnut and oriental spices add zest to Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs.
