Piper-Heidsieck Essentiel Cuvée Réservée
Descripción
La elaboración de este champagne está protagonizada por uvas de más de 50 crus distintos, seleccionados minuciosamente para conseguir un espumoso en el que las notas a pomelo, membrillo y miel son las predominantes. 36 meses de crianza en rimas y 6 más de descanso tras el degüelle, con un dosaje moderado, hacen de este un espumoso a tener muy en cuenta.

Opinión de los críticos
Based on 2011, this has plenty of honeysuckle, grilled cashew nuts and peach stone fruits on offer. The palate delivers a smooth, ripe and slightly candied peach core, with hints of woody complexity, and a fresh finish. Drink now.
Based on the 2015 vintage, the NV Extra-Brut Essentiel is a Pinot Noir-dominant blend complemented by some 20% reserve wines that was disgorged in May 2020 with five grams per liter dosage. Offering up aromas of golden orchard fruit, freshly baked bread and warm biscuits, it's medium to full-bodied, with a pillowy mousse, brisk acids and a mouthwatering finish. This will benefit from another year on cork to knit together and round out, but it's a creditable effort.
