Piper Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut NV《ZTF421》

Piper-Heidsieck Champagne is one of the world's three major Champagne brands. The Piper-Heidsieck Champagne House was founded on July 16, 1785, in Reims by Florens-Louis Heidsieck. At that time, Florens-Louis Heidsieck was already a professional winemaker and had even contributed a bottle of his own wine to Marie Antoinette. Reims, the production area of ​​Piper-Heidsieck Champagne, is the economic capital of the Champagne region and a historically significant city in France, often referred to as the "City of Kings." Since the 11th century, every French king had to be crowned in this "coronation city." In 1828, the founder of Piper-Heidsieck Champagne House passed away, and the winery was taken over by his niece, Christian Heidsieck, and cousin, Henri Guilaume Piper. In 1838, Christian Heidsieck married Henri Guilaume Piper, and the winery was renamed "Piper-Heidsieck" in October 1839. In the late 1980s, Piper-Heidsieck became part of a wine and spirits group, and in 2011 it was acquired by EPI (Europeenne de Participation Industrielle), a privately held French luxury brand.

Piper-Heidsieck does not own its own vineyards; it sources grapes from 60 vineyards in the Champagne region and now produces an average of approximately 5 million bottles of Champagne annually. The winery currently produces six different Champagnes, the most famous of which is "Cuvee Rare," made from 35% Pinot Noir and 65% Chardonnay. To embody the prestige and elegance of Heidsieck Black Diamond Champagne, it features a unique black bottle without a label; instead, the name is engraved directly on the bottle, much like a jewelry designer engraving their name on a piece of jewelry. Behind this ingenious bottle design lies over two centuries of historical tradition and the accumulated essence of quality from the Heidsieck family.

Today, Heidsieck Champagne has become a veritable "fashion party maker," appearing at star-studded events such as award ceremonies, fashion shows, and film premieres. Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe once said, "Chanel No. 5 lulls me to sleep, Heidsieck Champagne wakes me up," demonstrating her fondness for the brand and highlighting its unique charm.

A luxurious blend of up to 35% precious, aged Reserve Wines, perfectly embodying the clarity and depth of a top-tier terroir.
