- Description
- Piper Heidsieck's Essentiel Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut is a multi-vintage Champagne showcasing the house style through three years of maturation on the lees, composed of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Pinot Meunier. Fresh and zesty aromatics of lemon, plum, pear, and brioche emerge on the nose, with a crisp palate balanced between fruit acidity and subtle dosage. The layered mousse and persistent finish reflect disciplined winemaking and the extended lees contact. This Champagne works equally well as an aperitif or pairing with hard cheeses and fruit-forward desserts.
