Charles Heidsieck Champagne Charlie MEC 2020
DOZEN: $10,692.00 or $891.00 each
It is the raiding of the finest, oldest and most age-worthy reserve wines that sets this wine as one of the greatest champagnes on the planet. Sublime harmony and complexity with energy that could power small towns. Huge personality but no showiness. Jasmine, peony, Sicilian lemon. Nougat and shortbread, the finest pain d'épices. A wine of balletic grace and momentum. A liquid symphony, a drinkable masterpiece. 12% alcohol, (98) NICK RYAN
Fascinating, almost decadent aromas of salted butter, brioche, flowers and apples. Round and dense yet fresh and rather weightless on the palate. Subtle flavors of chalk and stones with rich bread, some pie crust, cream and cooked apples. A complex, handmade quality. Mostly chardonnay from Cramant and Avize. Pinot noir from Bouzy and Vertus. 4.5 years on the lees. Dosage 9 g/L. Disgorged 2024. Drink now. (97) JAMES SUCKLING
