Piper-Heidsieck
Cuvée Sublime
Slip this
vibrant new offering out of its sexy purple sleeve, and you may notice
something sublime. Piper-Heidsieck is showing its sweet side with this
Demi-Sec cuvée, but don’t be fooled by the “semi-dry”
moniker: this is a sweet sparkler. Demi-Secs by definition contain more
residual sugar, and this selection is no exception. Winemaker Régis
Camus chose Piper Heidsieck's characteristic cuvée as a base and
has accentuated softer aromas of flowers, dried fruits, vanilla and cinnamon.
The result is a Champagne with deeper, stronger undertones. A combination
of freshness and fullness on the palate reveals hints of caramelized pineapple,
with vanilla and cinnamon spices displaying a warm finish. Pair it with
a lime pie or fruit salad to bid summer a sweet adieu.
