Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve 12 % Vol. is an exceptional champagne from France that embodies the unmistakable signature of one of the most traditional champagne houses. Charles Heidsieck was founded in 1851 by Charles-Camille Heidsieck, who set out on his own in Champagne at the age of just 29. Today, the Brut Réserve is regarded as the house’s signature cuvée, blending 40 per cent Pinot Noir, 40 per cent Chardonnay and 20 per cent Meunier. The grapes come from around 60 selected vineyard sites, with the renowned crus of Oger, Ambonnay and Verneuil playing a particularly important role. They form the basis for a sophisticated champagne that combines the time-honoured art of winemaking in Champagne with a distinctive style.


A distinctive feature of Charles Heidsieck Champagne Brut Réserve is the exceptionally high proportion – 50 per cent – of reserve wines, which contributes significantly to the cuvée’s characteristic signature. The base wines are vinified separately according to origin and grape variety, predominantly in stainless steel tanks, whilst 5–10 per cent are aged in used Burgundy barrels. The champagne then develops its distinctive complexity whilst maturing in the house’s historic chalk cellars. With an alcohol content of 12 per cent in the 0.75-litre bottle, this French brut champagne is a stylish choice for festive occasions, sophisticated dinners and special moments of indulgence.
