Description
Piper-Heidsieck Essentiel is a multi-vintage cuvée featuring a blend of 3 varieties. Its magnificent structure, balance, and freshness ensure that this Extra-Brut represents the iconic style of the House.
Piper-Heidsieck Essentiel boasts a precise, accomplished, and balanced profile. The nose delivers initial notes of plum, brioche, grapefruit, and stewed quince, developing aromas of acacia honey and grilled nuts.
“Essentiel reveals a complex, rich aromatic nose. Its precision and excellent balance make for perfect pairing with fine cuisine.”
