Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve Charlie Champagne NV

Notable improvement, although the 1981 rose is still a remarkable

Timeless classic that has stood the test of time, Charles Heidsieck's 'Charlie' vintage 1985 is a true gem. Its star of the evening is the remarkable quality of the champagne, with a perfect balance of sweet and dry notes. The 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir blend creates a luscious and well-rounded flavor profile, with layers of almonds, vanilla, toast, and a touch of smoke. The champagne's aging process, which includes 10 years in oak and 23 years of bottle aging, has resulted in a polished and plush texture, in contrast the medium+ body and elegant mousse make it a pleasure to drink. The linger is long and satisfying, with a intricacy that will leave you wanting more. A true icon of the champagne world, 'Charlie' is a must-try for any connoisseur.

Elegant, sumptuous, and indulgent. Delightful and sumptuous. Rich, creamy, and sumptuous, with a undertone of sweetness and a touch of sophistication. The fruit is still fresh, it's the magic of the generous format, and the perfect accompaniment to the rich, soft mouthfeel of the aged comté.
