Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Charles "Champagne Charlie" Heidsieck was one of the first to recognize the importance of the U.S. as a Champagne market. A blend with 40% reserve wines, fruit and floral bouquet, with orange blossom & yeasty notes. Fine bubbles, nice mousse, showing quality. Outstanding rich flavors of apple, pear and biscuit, well balanced, good structure, creamy. Long finish ending with toasty nutty oak & mineral notes. — 11 days ago

Slightest pink tone to the Champagne. Lovely mouth filling texture! Pear and strawberry aromas. High acidity due to no MLF. A bit of yellow apple on the bud. — a month ago

At first: yeasty and spicy tones, shoe polish, dried herbs. Then, after a few minutes: grilled pepper, open knit, balanced, ecoline paint, earthy, licorice, bacon, very complex. — 3 hours ago

Dark fruit flavors like blackberries and dark cherries also tastes of dark chocolate and aged balsamic. This wine is very reduced. I don’t usually think of 18 years old as being very old for Châteauneuf-du-Pape but this one is showing its age. On the nose it gives balsamic reduction and dark cherry syrup. This wine has the nose of a vintage port. It does still have a good tannin structure. Very interesting. — 4 days ago

This has something for everyone. Zippy fruit, yeasty, and good depth. Best part is it isn’t crazy expensive for a comparative bottle — a month ago
