Charles Heidsieck Blanc Des Millenaires 2007 In Gift Box (75cl)

Tasting Notes:

To the eye a heavenly glowing brilliant robe with primrose highlights, explained solely from Chardonnay grapes. A sensitive, particular bubble, the consequence of over 15 years maturing in Gallo-Roman chalk cellars.

On the nose, a strict determination of more than 4 grand crus from the Cote des Blancs and one premier cru stipends a novel honorability, class and liberality to this wine. The rich bunch presents smells of dried and sugar coated fruits, for example, hazelnuts, almonds and dates. The wine of a person of good taste, with profound strong notes of beeswax and nougat.

The year 2007 discovers expression in this wine on account of the attractive, smooth but then sensitive composition so normal for the Blanc Des Millenaires. Smooth and sexy, the wine uncovers its liberality in notes of salty caramel and its gentleness in an insight of almond milk, supplemented by unobtrusive notes of vanilla and cedar wood.

An exceptional feeling, an impression of time everlasting, much like the inclination one has when remaining in the heart of the 2000-year old chalk cellars for which this wine is named.
