{"product_id":"charles-heidsieck-brut-reserve-nv-2","title":"Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve NV","description":"\u003cp\u003eA deep, luxurious Champagne with ripe orchard fruit, toasted brioche, and remarkable reserve-wine complexity. Creamy, layered, and one of the most characterful non-vintage Brut styles on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve NV is a benchmark Champagne, celebrated for its richness, complexity, and the meticulous craftsmanship of one of the region’s most respected houses. Founded in 1851 by the adventurous and visionary Charles-Camille Heidsieck – famously known as “Champagne Charlie” – the house quickly gained a reputation for boldness and refinement, and today it remains synonymous with depth, maturity, and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Brut Réserve is a masterclass in blending, bringing together equal parts Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay sourced from more than 60 carefully selected crus. What sets it apart is the exceptionally high proportion of reserve wines (40%), some aged up to 10–15 years, which lend the cuvée its signature layers of complexity and generosity. Aged for a minimum of three years in the house’s historic chalk cellars, the wine develops a refined balance between freshness and maturity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Champagne of gastronomic versatility, the Brut Réserve pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, roast poultry, truffle risotto, or aged Comté. It is equally compelling as a refined apéritif, where its richness and finesse shine in every sip. While superbly enjoyable today, it also has the structure and depth to evolve gracefully for the next 8–10 years, developing honeyed, nutty, and savoury layers with time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Crushed Grape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57376088392015,"sku":null,"price":54.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/2550\/0239\/files\/Charles_Heidsieck_b94b6ef6-2684-4725-b753-e779bf772a0a.png?v=1777543841","url":"https:\/\/crushedgrape.co.uk\/products\/charles-heidsieck-brut-reserve-nv-2","provider":"The Crushed Grape","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
