In approach and style, Piper-Heidsieck’s wines stand out for their striking freshness, dominated by up to 55% of Pinot Noir but joined by palate-filling Pinot Meunier and mineral, incisive Chardonnay. No oak is used, but reserve wines from older vintages across a broad sweep of the Champagne region add nuance, complexity and harmony.
