Unfurling in the glass with incipiently complex aromas of citrus oil, wheat toast, fresh peach and crisp orchard fruit, the newly released 2012 Vintage Brut is full-bodied, deep and tightly wound, with excellent concentration, racy acids and a fine mousse, concluding with a long and penetrating finish. Even though it's still a little reserved after its recent disgorgement,

A crowd-pleasing example, showing overall balance and integration, with lightly mouthwatering acidity and a creamy texture married to an appealing mix of white cherry, almond biscotti, lemon curd and anise flavors. A lovely streak of spicy minerality drives the long finish. Drink now through 2027.

The 2012 Vintage is bold, open-knit and very easy to like. Brioche, pastry, vanillin and warm, toasty notes all run through this rich, boisterous Champagne from Piper-Hiedsieck. Deep and racy, with good depth, the 2012 is a good choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years.
