The only Champagne to make the 2019 Wine Spectator Top 100!
One of the best-priced champagnes for this level of quality
Founded in 1785, and oldest of the three Heidsieck houses. Bubbling over with exuberant charm, the Piper NV is drinking particularly well these days.
Ranked #32 on the Wine Spectator Top 100 list
Good example of the new generation of Barossa vineyards: succulent and rich, combining wonderful fruit purity with texture and complexity. A deep core of flavour, notes of cassis, plum, spice and chocolate.
Ranked #53 in the Wine Spectator Top 100 list
Vivid plum, boysenberry, cassis and acai berry fruit, along with a dark edge of tar, baker's chocolate and salted licorice that courses underneath. The long finish lets the fruit play out, keeping singed alder and chai spice hints in the background. Smolderingly seductive.
