Charles Heidsieck, Brut Millesime other_regions this is a clear notch

this is a clear notch up in elegance and is clearly finer with an ultra high-toned floral and spice-infused nose that is almost completely closed in though this may be due to a subtle touch of reduction and I would suggest decanting this if you’re going to try a bottle young

While this is presently not quite as complex or structured as the Fuées

Forget it for another decade and drink it over the following 25-30 years

This is an extremely impressive effort and one of the finest wines of the vintage

but on July 19th everything changed and the year was saved by some 40 liters of rain

Charles Heidsieck, Brut Millesime other_regions this is a clear notchDisgorged in 2019 with eight grams per liter dosage, the 2012 Brut Millsim offers up aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white flowers and clear honey, complemented by hints of toasted bread, citrus zest and linden. Medium to full bodied, elegantly fleshy and nicely concentrated, with lively acids and a pinpoint mousse, it's more generous and demonstrative than the 2008, but it will nonetheless reward a bit of bottle age.
