About Box 1 bottle Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires

Colloquially known in New York circles as "Champagne Charlie," by the mid-19th century, Charles Heidsieck understood that crafting wines of monumental quality required more than just gathering the finest grapes; it was essential to grant them time to mature undisturbed. With this ambition, he acquired ancient subterranean Roman chalk cathedrals from the 3rd century in Reims, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires embodies this extreme patience.

From Reims, in the geographical heart of AOC Champagne, Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires originates from a meticulous selection of five historic villages classified as Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs: Cramant, Avize, Oger, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, and Vertus. The vines thrive on soils dominated by pure chalk, a porous rock that acts as a natural sponge, regulating water and imparting unparalleled mineral tension to the plants. The climate combines Atlantic influences with continental rigours, offering cold winters, mild summers, and a perfect thermal amplitude to ensure slow maturation. The variety used is one hundred percent Chardonnay, the most noble white grape of the region. Faithful to a legacy of absolute respect for the vineyard, viticulture relies on traditional methods, practising meticulous manual harvesting where each cluster is selected at the foot of the vine.

The production of Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires adheres to a fascinating technical rigour designed to achieve a balance between freshness and maturity. After manual harvesting, the whole clusters undergo gentle pressing, and the must undergoes alcoholic fermentation, the biological process in which yeasts transform sugars into alcohol, in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Subsequently, malolactic fermentation takes place, the biological transformation that softens acidity by converting malic acid into lactic acid. After bottling and the addition of the liqueur de tirage, a mixture of yeast and sugar, the wine begins its secondary fermentation in the bottle and undergoes an ageing period on lees for 9 years in the dim light of the chalk quarries. Once this long repose is completed, disgorgement is performed to remove the sediment, and a dosage of 9 grams of sugar per litre (brut) is added before the final corking.

Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires is a broad, complex champagne of dazzling sophistication, whose presentation in a gift box makes it an excellent choice for gifting, surprising an aficionado of great wines, or toasting on a truly memorable occasion.
