In 2011, the Descours family took back in hand this old Maison (1851) in order to make it find its XIXth century chandelier. In less than 5 years, the bet is won, already praised by the critics: "Charles Heidsieck amply deserves to be considered as one of the most brilliant current brands" for Mr. Bettane, "Heidsieck returns to the forefront with a complete range of wines of high level" for the Revue du Vin de France.
Predominantly Chardonnay, the 'Charles' style is based on elegance and above all a great freshness tempered by a long maturation (from 5 years for the Brut Réserve to 15 years for the Blanc des Millénaires) in their famous crayères near Reims. For the whole range, no trace of oxidation, no rancio, only an extreme melted and suave finesse. Great art!
