Piper-Heidsieck Rare Rosé Millésime 2014 is an extraordinary vintage champagne that embodies elegance, precision, and rarity. Crafted only in exceptional years, this prestige cuvée showcases the House’s dedication to excellence.
The 2014 vintage reveals a refined balance between freshness and intensity. Aromas of wild strawberries, blood orange, and rose petals unfold beautifully, complemented by subtle notes of spice and toasted brioche. On the palate, it is vibrant yet silky, with a delicate structure and a long, mineral-driven finish.
A blend dominated by Chardonnay with a touch of Pinot Noir, this rosé expresses both finesse and depth. Perfect for special occasions or fine dining, it pairs exquisitely with seafood, duck, or refined desserts.
Tasted from magnum, disgorged in July 2023 with a dosage of nine grams per liter, the 2014 Rare Rosé Millésime displays a deeper hue than its two predecessors. Flamboyant and demonstrative, it bursts from the glass with aromas of blood orange, apricot, cherry and wild strawberry, mingling with candied pear and a touch of buttered toast. Incorporating 18% red wine from Les Riceys, it is full-bodied and muscular, with a rich and sweet core of fruit, succulent yet vibrant acidity and pillowy mousse, finishing long and perfumed with a subtle phenolic grip. While not as incisive or deep as the 2008, nor as harmonious as the 2012, this rather powerful rendition possesses the attributes to evolve nicely over time, aging on its generous structure: 93+ Parker Points.
