Winemaker

At just 29 years of age, Charles-Camille Heidsieck decided to create his eponymous House in 1851. Despite being a heir – the Heidsiecks were one of the most respected families in the Champagne world – he decided to forge his own path and establish his own dynasty, eager to embark on his own entrepreneurial journey.

Of the sixty Champagne crus chosen to produce this emblematic cuvée, three are pillars of the Brut Réserve style:

Oger :  (Grand Cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs) gives it its fleshy and generous notes.
Ambonnay : (Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims) is synonymous with power, structure and fruity notes.

Verneuil : (Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne) ensures its balance and smooth texture.

BLENDING :

40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Meunier.

VINIFICATION :

Cru by cru, varietal by varietal, in stainless steel vats. 5 to 10% of wine vinified in old Burgundy oak barrels.
