Overview

In the context of so extreme a vintage, Charles Heidsieck’s 2018 Brut Millésimé is a wine of considerable success. Disgorged in May 2024 with a dosage of eight grams per liter, it soars from the glass with aromas of pomelo, pear and lemon confit, mingling with brioche and jasmine, framed by a deft touch of smoky reduction. On the palate, it is full-bodied and enveloping, with a fleshy and charming fruit core, enlivened by ripe but vibrant acidity and a pillowy mousse, concluding with a toasty, saline-tinged finish. Flamboyant and immediately seductive, it promises a broad window of enjoyment. The blend consists of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay.

The first release of Champagne Charlie since its recreation, the NV Champagne Charlie Cellared in 2017 is based on the 2016 vintage (the youngest vintage remains the “base” of a tirage, even if it doesn’t represent the majority of the blend) and incorporates 75% reserve wines—the principal components being 2009 Oger and 2010 Aÿ and Tauxières. Disgorged in 2023 with a dosage of seven grams per liter, it bursts with aromas of candied lemon, pear, peach and brioche with a hint of praline. On the palate, it is full-bodied, broad-shouldered and textural, with a rich fruit core, lively acidity and a long, enveloping finish. The blend is almost equally divided between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. By Kristaps Karklins September 2025

Émilien Erard’s first vintage working at Heidsieck, the 2018 Champagne Millesime Brut has a shimmering yellow hue, while the nose reveals notes of ripe peaches, with a fleshy stone fruit character that is characteristic of the house. Disgorged in 2024, this 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay blend, with no oak, was aged entirely in stainless steel tanks. They were aiming to preserve the freshness of this vintage to enhance its aging potential. The mousse is frothy and floral, expressive and open in this vintage. Drink 2026-2050.
