Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Rare Brut Champagne Blend 2013

94 points - limited                                   Many consider the Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Cuvee Rare the best champagne in the world!  Elegant and focused with a fine bead, light salmon color, creamy texture and lingering finish. Limited. Having released only 12 vintages since 1976, Piper-Heidsieck Rare Champagne confirms that it really is the One True Exception. Rare Champagne is an introduction to the French ‘Art de Vivre’, whose timeless elegance knows no borders. 97 Points Wine Spectator: "Like a stallion out of the gate, this shows an initial explosion of power, in the form of mouthwatering flavors and fine texture, before quickly settling into an elegant gait. The racy acidity is seamlessly knit, buoying the lacy mousse and flavors of cassis, toasted brioche and tangerine, with accents of candied ginger, hazelnut and fleur de sel lingering on the long, creamy finish."
