Champagne Piper-Heidsieck Vintage Brut 2008

Grape(s):48% Pinot Noir, 52% Chardonnay, Dosage: 9.5g/l

Description:

"The 2008 Vintage Brut offers a clear and toasty aroma on the nose. Pure, fresh, lean and delicate but complex and mineral on the palate, this is a lithe and elegant, very finessed and persistent 2008 with grip and expression. This is a complex, intense yet light and very elegant Champagne with a pure, mineral-structured and persistent finish. (SR)  (11/2017)" 94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"An elegant, toasty version, featuring firm, focusing acidity layered with rich hints of canelé, dried apricot, coffee liqueur and star anise. Bright and citrusy, with a long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2027. (AN)  (4/2017)" 93 points Wine Spectator
