The whole set demonstrates a subtle balance of lights and dark, a uniqueness mirorred by the exceptional tasting qualities of the vintage Champagne.

Charles heidsieck champagne

Charles Heidsieck champagne is the result of hard work; it is a true gem for people knowledgeable in the field.

Since the beginning of their production, this Champagne spreaded successfully throughout European royal courts and to the wealthiest people of that time.

Charles Camille–Heidsieck was a young man when he set up his wine house in 1851. He operated a strict selection of grapes and improved production methods by purchasing new machines for a better wine mellowing maturation.

The Charles Heidsieck House now produces several Cuvee like Brut reserve, Rosé reserve, Blanc des millenaires and vintage Brut 2000.

The Champagne House’s man expertise and gifted natural resources contribute to define its style.

Another reason for Charles Heidsieck champagne’s incredible success is time since the optimal mellowing time provides a unique taste, the “fondu aromatique”, so sought after by the industry experts.

Wines are kept stored for at least 3 years (for Brut reserve), 6 years for Vintage ones.

After the “degorgement”, wine rests another 3 to 6 years before being sent off.

Consistency is the key to characterize Bollinger house and wine; it is embodied both in the Champagne style and wine quality produced by the house.

The Bollinger’s Charter of ethics and quality strengthens this Champagne consistency even further in consumers’ eyes.

Bollinger’s style and identity is divided in two famous cuvee: the “Cuvee spéciale” and “La grande année”.

The “Cuvee spéciale”, a non vintage wine produced every year, is Bollinger’s quintessential style.

It is on this particular wine Bollinger wants to be judged in order to stand out from other Champagne brands.

On the other hand, “La Grande Année“ is produced only when the harvest quality is extremely high. This is Bollinger Excellence cuvee; the vintage “Grand cru” from the Champagne region.

Bollinger then produces variations around these two key Champagne types, all of these wines boasting a strong personality.
