Charles Heidsieck - Blanc des Millénaires

97 Points - The Wine Advocate

"Disgorged 20 years ago, the golden coloured 1985 Blanc des Millenaires – comprised of 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir – displays a deep and beautifully matured nose with wax, honey, caramel and butterscotch aromas. Full flavoured, rich and highly elegant in the mouth, with great intensity, structure and complexity in the aromas, this 31-year-old prestige cuvée is fascinatingly vital – although there are almost no bubbles visible. There are dried stone fruit flavours in the finish. A great drinking experience." - Stephan Reinhardt
