Rare Rose Millesime 2014
Champagne, France
The Piper-Heidsieck ‘Rare’ Vintage Brut is only made in the very best of years – and have to be considered perfect for what Regis Camus calls “an extraordinary cuvee”. The wine is matured for over seven years in their cellars before being dressed and ready for release.
60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir. Aromas of cherry, lychee and ginger intensify on the nose. Simultaneously, the structure of Rare Rosé Millésime 2012 strikes a balance between hot and cold: warm spices such as paprika, Espelette chili, turmeric and pepper give way to a cooling, mineral freshness. The finish, which combines attractive tannins and iodine notes, is the sign of a sophisticated wine with a vibrant salinity.

Winery Profile
RARE – Champagne, France
A heat wave, like one never seen before, struck France in the summer of 1976, desiccating the vineyards and reminding mankind of its defencelessness against the whims of Nature. Oenologists, cellar masters and winemakers were at their wits end. Could it be possible to produce a cuvée worthy of the Maison PIPER-HEIDSIECK under such conditions? The Maison refused to bow to the Fates: after all, such an extraordinary event could produce an extraordinary cuvée. Thanks to their expertise and creativity, several men skilled in the art of winemaking transcended the disaster and tamed the unbridled natural forces that year to produce a cuvée of exquisite purity.
