Piper Heidsieck Cuvee Brut Champagne NV
(Champagne, France) - [WS 91] [WE 90] [JD 90] [JS 90]

Notes from the Winemaker: 
The majority of the blend of Piper-Heidsieck signature Cuvee Brut is composed of Pinot Noir. Hand selected parcels of Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay also play important roles in the elaboration of this well-balanced cuvee. Selected reserve wines from preceding years are incorporated into the blend to ensure consistency of style year after year. The blend is aged for minimum 24 months on the lees before release.

Palate: A structured, full-bodied and franc wine. A juicy, fleshy pear and golden grape texture. The finish narrows to citrus and grapefruit flavors. A wine with great fruit, a good mouthfeel and a harmonious balance.

91 Points - Wine Spectator:
"Creamy and well-balanced, this lively Champagne offers flavors of ripe black currant and black cherry, candied lemon peel, and brioche, plus fragrant notes of anise and clove. Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. Drink now." - AN (Dec 2025)

90 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"The Champagne is balanced between a soft Brut character and crisper lemon flavors. That balance gives a fine wine, open and easy, but with a fine bite of acidity at the end. Drink now." - RV (Dec 2023)

90 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:
"A bright yellow color, the NV Champagne Cuvee Brut is generous and classic on the nose with notes of toasted brioche, buttered citrus, and caramel red apples. It fills the palate with a pillowing mousse, and its ripe profile becomes more savory through the finish. This solid and highly charming cuvée wou;d be perfect for parties and as an aperitif to enjoy over the near-term." (Dec 2024)

90 Points - James Suckling:
"Croissants, sliced apples and lemon pastries on the nose of this creamy Champagne. It’s rounded and soft with attractive pastry character. Drink now." (Jul 2025)
