Piper-Heidsieck Cuvee Brut Magnum 1.5L, Champagne

50-55% Pinot Noir, 20-25% Pinot meunier, 10-15% Chardonnay; 18% reserves; a blend of more than 100 crus; aged 4 years on lees; 10g/L dosage.

Cuvée Brut is a classic, structured, full-bodied and bursting with fruit Champagne. The blend is composed of a majority of Pinots Noirs, incorporating more than 100 crus from around the Champagne region and Pinots Meuniers from the Grande et Petite Montagne de Reims region. A clear, golden Champagne robe par excellence. Delicate and fine bubbles resulting from an extended maturation time. Fresh fruit dominates, with pear and russet apple, and a few hints of citrus fruits such as star fruit. A structured, full-bodied and franc wine. A juicy, fleshy pear and golden grape texture. The finish narrows to citrus and grapefruit flavours. A wine with great fruit, a good mouth feel and a harmonious balance.
