One of the best 2012s released. This so fresh and transparent, with superb clarity and brightness. Subtle aromas of mangoes, apples, some pie crust and crushed stones that follow through to a medium body with a tight palate and an endless finish. Precise on every level. Haute couture. Sophisticated. What a great Champagne can be. Released in magnum June 2026. Disgorged February 2025. Drink or hold.”

Piper-Heidsieck
It all began when Florens-Louis Heidsieck of Riems fell in love with a girl from Champagne. In 1785, the former draper, founded the Cloth and Wine Trading Company Heidsieck & Co. His wines quickly gained wide appraise, even becoming one of the Royal Court’s favorites. Following his passing in 1828, Florens-Louis’ nephew, Christian Heidsieck, and a brilliant businessman, Henri-Guillaume Piper joined forces. After Christian’s sudden death in 1835, his wife remarried Henri-Guillaume, and thus the Piper-Heidsieck brand was born. Known as the world’s most favorite Champagne, the brand has remained under the Descours’ ownership since 2011. Today, Jean-Louis Descours, along with the new president of the house, Damien Lafaurie, work towards the brand’s new image – focusing heavily on the quality of the wine. Piper-Heidsieck still remains one of the greatest value-for-money authentic Champagnes on the market. Their quality wines are crisp and elegant, with a depth and complexity that contradicts the price.
