Pale gold and crystalline in appearance, the aromas of mature Chardonnay are immediately recognized. Resplendent with white peach, candied citrus, lime, and honeysuckle complemented by hints of hazelnut, the cuv©e unfolds to subtle nuances of tangerine and lemon. With a freshness and tautness marked by the typical Charles generosity, this velvety, full-bodied cuv©e features the aromatic complexity which is the hallmark of Charles Heidsieck and characterized by prolonged aging in the chalk cellars for 25% of this blend.

In 1851, young Charles Heidsieck founded his own Champagne house in Reims. He understood that the United States was an important emerging market, so he traversed America repeatedly north to south promoting his new brand. The stylish entrepreneur became known lovingly as "Champagne Charlie." Charles Heidsieck Champagne is distinguished by the high proportion of reserve wines in the Brut R©serve. 40% of the blend is comprised of reserve wines averaging 10 years old, giving the wine uncommon depth and complexity. In addition to the non-vintage Brut R©serve and Ros© R©serve, the winery produces a Vintage Brut, Vintage Ros© and the prestige cuv©e Blanc des Millenaires. Only 60 crus from Champagne are blended to create Charles Heidsieck Champagnes, but the three stylistic pillars that give the Brut R©serve its distinct character are Grand Cru Chardonnay from Oger in the C¥te des Blancs, Grand Cru Pinot Noir from Ambonnay in the Montagne de Reims, and the distinct Pinot Meunier from Verneuil in the Vall©e de Marne.
