Piper-Heidsieck Rare Brut Champagne Millesimé 2012

Smooth and multi faceted floral notes unfolds, with zesty citrus tones and a light touch of toasted brioche, graceful by the freshness of green apple and the sweetness of passion fruits, while the sensation remains lively and well-structured, with layers of citrus fruits and a enjoyable dimension of flavor, making this vintage a true gem.

Clear pale lemon with a clean and pronounced nose, featuring aromas of lemon, lime, apple, pear, apricot, almond, toast, and brioche. The profile is off dry with high tanginess and a med-alcohol level, accompanied by a med body and a long finish. The wine exhibits pronounced intensity that follows from the nose, with structure and intensity of flavour that will only improve with time.

Vibrant and revitalizing aperitif that seamlessly highlighted our JoM Grenache fest. The 25-year-old sparkling wine showcased its zesty freshness and lively energy, accompanied by a delightful nose of yellow apple, white peach, and honeysuckle. The brightness was harmoniously balanced, and the wine's vibrant brightness paired beautifully with the Gangloff Condrieu, but also presenting its peachy fruit notes.
