Shows a mix of toast, graphite and honey flavors, all allied to an elegant frame. Vibrant and long, with a spice and mineral aftertaste and a firm, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2020. Rating: 90 The Wine Spectator, www.winespectator.com (Aug 2012)

Pale greenish gold. Very fine. Forward scent. More obvious Chardonnay than anything, with real complexity and great balance. Lemony and rich. Great length. Rating: 18 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Aug 2012)

The 2000 Brut is another supple Champagne from Charles Hiedsieck. Medium in body, the wine reveals clean aromas and flavors, with resonating notes of sweet apricot, mango and smoke on the close. Rating: 88 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Aug 2012)

Champagne Charles Heidsieck

Founded in 1851 by 29 year old Charles Camille Heidsieck, the original 'Champagne Charlie'. Charles Heidsieck was the very first champagne merchant to travel to America, and is credited with popularising champagne over in the USA.

In 1862, Heidsieck decided to invest in cellars dating from the 2nd century, rather than buying land for vineyards - henceforth placing more importance on the careful selection, ageing and blending of the wines, whilst leaving the viticulture to the experts in that field.

Current cellarmaster Cyril Brun is credited with reviving the quality of the wines here.
