earth and underbrush

Forget it for another decade and drink it over the following 25-30 years

This is an utterly charming and noble Saint-Émilion

highly perfumed aromas of ripe dark berries

when the normal production should have been around 100

Charles Heidsieck, Brut Millesime other_regions earth and underbrushDisgorged in 2019 with eight grams per liter dosage, the 2012 Brut Millsim offers up aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white flowers and clear honey, complemented by hints of toasted bread, citrus zest and linden. Medium to full bodied, elegantly fleshy and nicely concentrated, with lively acids and a pinpoint mousse, it's more generous and demonstrative than the 2008, but it will nonetheless reward a bit of bottle age.
