Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Blancs NV Review
This full-bodied and generous Blanc de Blancs exudes aromatic complexity, a signature of Charles Heidsieck wines. Reserve wines make up a quarter of the total composition, adding to a velvety effervescence. Fruit is at the forefront (peach and cooking apple) with notes of lemon peel. There’s a mineral-rich elegance with hints of bread dough on the finish.
