Description

A complex and generous Rosé Champagne

The estate

An essential reference, the Champagne Charles Heidsieck House preserves a prestigious heritage with chalk cellars dating back two millennia. A pioneer, Charles Heidsieck stood out as early as the late 1980s by highlighting the exceptional aromatic evolution of its multi-vintage Brut champagne. In 1987, Charles Heidsieck thus became the first Champagne house to indicate the “cellaring date” to track the wine’s evolution over time.

The vineyard

The Heidsieck House owns approximately 60 hectares of vineyards in the Marne and Aube. These vineyards are certified for sustainable viticulture as well as High Environmental Value certification. In addition to its own vineyard and following the Champagne model, Charles Heidsieck supplements its needs through long-term supply contracts with rigorously selected growers and cooperatives in Champagne.

The wine

The Rosé Réserve by Charles Heidsieck is crafted from a rigorous selection of 50 crus among the finest terroirs of Champagne.

Winemaking and aging

Parcel vinification is carried out by cru and by grape variety. Complexity, precision, and generosity are the three key words that define the identity of Charles Heidsieck’s Rosé Réserve champagne, patiently aged for three years in the house’s chalk cellars.

Blending

The Rosé Réserve is the result of a blend of pinot noir, pinot meunier, chardonnay, and 20% reserve wines with an average age of 5 years. This exceptional champagne also includes 5 to 6% of great red wines in the blend, lending a generous character and beautiful tannic structure.

Characteristics and tasting tips for Rosé Réserve by Charles Heidsieck

Tasting

Appearance
The color displays a shimmering powder pink with luminous highlights, enhancing the finesse and consistency of the bubbles.

Nose
The first nose opens with the indulgence of elegant fruity notes of strawberry jam and summer fruits. The bouquet then gives way to warm notes of sweet spices and cinnamon aromas.

Palate
Full of character, the palate evolves with both indulgence and freshness on pastry and fruity notes, unfolding a deliciously smooth and creamy texture.

Cellaring potential

This rosé champagne, reflecting the excellence and style of the Charles Heidsieck House, can be cellared until 2025 to fully express its aromatic palette.
