Rare Champagne, a brand stemming from the heritage of Piper-Heidsieck, is more than just a champagne. Its history dates back to 1785, when the maison Piper-Heidsieck, founded that very same year in Reims by Florens-Louis Heidsieck,
presented its first prestige cuvée to the Queen of France, Marie-Antoinette.
Rare Millésime 2012 is just as iconic as Rare Millésime 2002. In a warm yet precise and lively combination, the spiced aromas, floral accents
and tropical notes create vivacious minerality.

Like an ode to joy, its radiant personality shines through its exceptional length.

 » Rare Millésime 2012 follows in the footsteps of Rare Millésime 2002 with its purity and iconic character. The wine expresses the combination of spiced aromas and tropical notes with unparalleled, indulgent precision. Its radiant and joyful minerality gracefully emerges. « 

Ode to Joy

Subtle at first, the nose gradually opens up. Its rich aromas are reminiscent of a stroll through Portofino, lush greenery in full bloom and the fresh scent of fruits lingering in the air. Mango, guava, plum and blueberry are especially prominent. Bold and zesty citrus fruit notes (bergamot, lemon) bring to mind the sparkling atmosphere of the Italian Riviera. Floral aromas of lilac call to mind colourful, elegant gardens overlooking the Mediterranean.

Finally, notes of honey, black tea, vanilla and white pepper yield to incense, smoke and accents of dried plants (lime blossom, blonde tobacco) in a prelude to the signature of Rare Champagne.
