Rare Champagne Millésime 2002 — a mature, honeyed vintage of orchard fruit and toasted depth.
From Rare Champagne — the prestige house founded in 1825 by Charles Heidsieck — this 2002 vintage blends Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and rests on its lees for at least nine years. Full-bodied and creamy, it shows the poise and complexity of a great year.
Full-bodied with a creamy texture and crisp acidity. A mature bouquet of orchard and stone fruits meets honey, toast and a mineral thread, leading to a long, lingering finish.
